I just called the office and was told what I thought to be. Its normal and there is nothing to be done but sit back and wait for the healing. I had a huge piece of gelfoam in the extraction site and stitches. This put me behind in the healing time, it took time for the gelfoam to melt. I found an awsome piece of info which is very informing.

Extraction site healing - Weeks 1 and 2.

What will you notice?

During the first two weeks after your surgery, you should notice that the gum tissue that surrounds your extraction site has completed a significant amount of healing. (As a point of reference, it's usually considered that enough gum tissue healing has taken place by days 7 through 10 that stitches can be removed.)

Especially toward the end of this time frame, you should find that the site really isn't much of a problem or bother. However, the relative amount of healing that's been able to take place will be influenced by the initial size of the wound. Wider and deeper wounds require a greater amount of time to fill in and close.

Restrictions on activities.

It is important to understand that the tissue that initially forms during the healing process is quite vascular (contains a large number of blood vessels). So, if you inadvertently traumatize it (like with food or while brushing), you can expect it to bleed easily. You can also expect this newly formed tissue to be tender when accidentally touched or prodded.
