It's normal to feel pain after extraction, especially if it's extracted surgically. Don't worry, it will goes away within few days.
Till then try to maintain good oral hygiene, warm saline water rinses two to three times a day, if their is swelling then apply ice pack outside your mouth over effected area.
Can take painkiller also.
Still have queries then please consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance.
