Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The possible cause of bleeding could be trauma to the extraction socket site while brushing or eating or it can be a bleeding disorder like thrombocytopenic purpura.
Get a complete blood investigation along with INR and rule out the bleeding disorder. Mean while you can place a gel foam over the bleeding site and suture it if needed, give proper instructions telling not to disturb the bleeding site by touching with hand or tongue. Instruct then to consume cold food items.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
