As per your complain swelling around nose after extraction of bicuspid can be due to both infection as well as inflammation of soft tissues caused during trauma to the soft tissues caused during extraction..
If the extraction site is healing fine and also the swelling is improving, you need not to worry as it indicates that Infection and inflammation is resolving..
You should continue taking antibiotics and also do cool compresses over the swelling..
It will help in gradually completely resolving the swelling...
