Kk,
It would be wise to go back to the oral surgeon for him to remove and repack the site.
Keep us posted on how you're doing....

The pain is radiating to the right jaw and down the left side of my neck is this expected? Should I go back and have the dry socket checked? The tissue surrounding the socket is also white. Is this normal? TIA
