I did wisdom tooth extraction on 3rd march 2022 but from last 3days i noticed the gum is swollen on the extraction side no pain is there but only swollen gums and when i touched it i feel some hard feeling like bone...I visited a dentist and he told me that stitch doesn't cut it completely.The dentist cut off the rest of the stitch and gave me dr.Reddy's Chlorhexidine Gluconate,Sodium Fluoride&Zinc Chloride mouthwash and told me to salt water rinse 4-5 times a day..but its been two days I visited the doctor but the swelling of the gums did not decrease..is it anything serious??...Iam attaching my swollen gum photos..please help me..

Seems to be like cheek bite. Upper wisdom tooth may have sharp edges. Smoothen the sharp edges of tooth from dentist. Get ultrasonic scaling done.
Next Steps
Visit dentist for clinical examination.
