Should I Be Worried About The Pressure Where The Surgery Was Done To Remove The Wisdom Tooth?

I got my bottom wisdom teeth out last Thursday, (all I had) and today after eating I noticed that I have a flab of skin hanging next to all of the discoloration. Should I worry about it? Also I'm feeling lots of pressure where the surgery was done, what could this be? When will it be okay to play sports? thank you

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

I would suggest you to take a rest of atleast one week after the surgery.
The symptoms which you have mentioned are due to the healing process.
I would suggest you to follow the post operative instructions given to you properly.

Take care!
