Your symptoms are suggestive of a post procedure infection. This a common occurrence, you are likely to have been prescribed antibiotics and painkillers by your treating doctor which you should continue as prescribed. You should do salt water gargle with lukewarm water and rinse your mouth so as to stop further infection and improve the healing process. You will require antipyretics. If the problem persists or worsens visit the dentist at the earliest

It is not an Unexpected sequel of healing stage. Just make sure to take the medications prescribed by your dentist as per the schedule, and follow the other instructions that might have been given along with that.
Give it a few days for the healing to get complete, it will all be fine.
Regards.
