Your extraction is fine.

You did not mention anything about your right lower wisdom tooth. The lower tooth which is poking on the upper last tooth area is traumatizing this area.
Check if the lower wisdom tooth is errupting now.
You should get the lower tooth extracted or get the sharp tooth rounded.
You must be on a course of antibiotics and analgesics for the infection.

Regards.
