Exclamation After Wisdom Teeth Extraction

I'm 16 years old and about 3 days ago I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled and I acquired a hard lump in my left cheek close to the extraction site and it really hurts. It seems to be getting bigger. What is it? Will it go away?

Hi riah,

It is important that you see the oral surgeon asap to evaluate that lump as it could be infection. Please do not wait to see him
