Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have undergone extraction of wisdom tooth now you have pain and slight fever yes it is normal to have slight fever nothing to worry for one week .
As you are asking for pain killer yes you can take one tablet three times a day .
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
If you wont get releif then consult your dental surgeon again and go for oral examination.
Hope this will help you.
