What Causes Bloody Plugs Discharge After Tooth Extraction?
I got my wisdom teeth (4) taken out 3 days ago, and from the upper left extraction site there's multiple bloody plugs coming out. About 1 penny size mass every 1-2 hours, I'm not sure if I should call my oral surgeon's emergency number? Thought it was the stitches at first, but now I'm not sure.
