After wisdom tooth extraction
After extraction of lower wisdom teeth in the right side, the swelling has decreased in the place where the tooth was extracted. But there is a hard feeling when I touch that place with my tongue.No pain nothing...I am attaching 2 photos of my extraction site in one photo I mark the place where I feel some hard feeling...I am doing warm saline rinse.
It has been twenty days since the teeth were extracted.

Sometimes the bone that regrows following an extraction can be uneven and cause irritation. Avoid provoking the sit with your tongue repeatedly as it will only make it worse. It would be best to visit your local dentist to better evaluate and treat the problem
