Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
the sweating,swelling in face and headaches after a tooth extraction is the radiating pain because of the inflammatory response to infection in the tooth. Nothing to worry, Take a course of antibiotics like like amoxicillin 500mg and metronidazole 400mg tid for 5 days (if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
