Default Still swelling 3 weeks after molar extraction

Hello,

One of my down molars has been extracted 3 weeks ago. The procedure took at about half an hour and I took antibiotics after that.
Now I still have a little pain on that side, the pain is going to my ear also. But it's not so big to take pills for it.
I have a little swelling on that side /may not visible to others, but I feel it/. It came bigger during the night, during the day it goes down, but it's still there.
I went to consult 2 dentist in these 3 weeks and made a x-ray to see if something was left. Both said that the healing is going well, but slowly and that there is no left tooth or roots after the extraction. The first one put me some medicine in the hole - something with кamfor I think. The second one made washing of the hole 'to heal faster'.
It seems that the pain is going away, but the swelling no. I'm wondering what to do - to wait or to look for 3rd opinion? Can everything be OK if I have these symptoms?
