sometimes wisdom teeth extractions are surgical which needs sutures and bone modifications via handpiece and burs, so more the use of drilling action on bone more is the swelling and more time it will take to heal so requesting you to wait for few more days may be 2 weeks and then watch for next step if any.
also check for any symptoms of dry socket ( if they persist - you need to visit dentist asap.)
Next Steps
wait for two more weeks.
