Huge hanging clot after oral surgery.

2017-07-15 13:54:35
After 72 hours i woke up to a big hanging clot from the socket where my tooth was extracted and I had oral surgery. There is no pain. I've rinsed a few time and also did the gauge thing and the tea bag thing. Little bits of it are coming, off is awful. I am constantly tasting blood in my mouth. Should the clot be removed?
