Gnchels,
It is not possible to diagnose via the photograph if that is pus exuding from the extraction site. However, the area looks very inflamed and that white area is not "normal" healing tissue.
Is it possible to go back to the clinic and see an oral surgeon to evaluate the socket for infection? This is not something you should try to treat on your own.

It could be skin but im too scared to touch. I still have a dull throbbing pain but nothing like it was with the denture in. I got this pulled at an indian tribal clinic and it was all free but they did not give me any medication so ive just been guessing with tylenol. Any kind of input would be greatly appreciated. I have no insurance but if its getting infected id like to know what to do. Thank you
