Hole after wisdom teeth extraction

2017-07-16 19:43:31
I had both of my bottom wisdom teeth removed 5 days ago, on the left side i noticed that there is no hole on the side of the extraction. However, on the right side i noticed that there is a hole with yellow-ish colored inside of it. Im wondering if it's normal or it's a sign of a dry socket. Please help me!
