The healing stage varies for every individual.
Usually it takes around 14-21days for the extraction site to heal.
I hope you are doing hot fomentation and warm saline rinses. It will help in the healing process.
Please be patient for the time being.
Next Steps
If the condition still persists feel free to consult me . Hopefully it will subside soon.
