I had a tooth pulled 4 days ago. There were a lot of complications, it was badly decayed, didn't want to go out and ultimately had to be surgically removed in pieces. I checked on my wound with tongue and it felt very tough, almost like lacerated bone. I put a cotton swab inside, it was indeed very tough but I felt no pain on contact at all (the cotton swab smell like dung, but that's to be expected because of bacteria). Sucking dry air and liquids does not seem to irritate the wound either. There is indeed pain, but very light and is easily dealt with by Ibuprofen.

So my question is: Do I have a dry socket, something worse or am I just panicking?
