Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Wisdom tooth extraction is often associated with post extraction complications like pain and swelling.
Iwould suggest you to follow post extraction instructions properly.
Take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics.
Take lukewarm saline nad antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Take complete rest.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.
The above symptoms will subside after sometimes.


Hope this helps out.

Regards..
I find this answer helpful
