Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
After going through your history, I will suggest you to visit an oral surgeon for proper examination.
It might be dry socket for which the oral surgeon will irrigate the area properly and place a medicament in the socket which will help in relieving pain and healing of the socket.
You should take Ketorol DT 3 times a day for pain relief.
Hope my answer will help you.
