Hi everybody,
I had my 4 wisdom teeth removed on Monday (6 days ago) and today I have noticed a bad taste coming from the left lower side. Its coming from under the gums. I am wondering whether this is an infection or something else. I have already missed a lot of work so Im just wondering if theres any certain way to tell if its an infection or not. I have been rinsing with salt water probably about 5 times a day since the surgery, and have been eating soft foods. The side in which the taste is coming from appears to have no stitches left.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Also if I left anything out feel free to ask for more info.
