Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The yellowish liquid and the blood can be secondary to the infected extraction site. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You can get the extraction socket irrigated with saline.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
