Is Swollen Hole Oozing Clear Fluid Post Wisdom Tooth Extraction Normal?

I got my wisdom teeth taken out 2 days ago. I ve been taking the medicine and rinsing constantly with salt water, but the bottom right hole is more swollen than the left. when I squeeze around the area it releases a yellow/clear fluid that tastes horrible. What is it? Is this dry socket?
