Hello! Today I am 6 days post op, and have been having issues with 1 of the 4 extraction sites from my wisdom tooth removal. The pain has been relatively manageable with Ibuprofen and Tylenol as prescribed by my oral surgeon. However, unlike the others it’s not getting better. Ive been aware of an odd taste in my mouth and slight bad breath, and the socket appears to be dark, with some whiteness sprinkled in. I have been using orajel since yesterday to help ease the pain, and keep the area relatively clean. Ive attached an image below to help potentially identify the issue.
Given the image and information, what would my best course of action be moving forward?
