Suggest Treatment For Injury After Wisdom Tooth Removal

I had my wisdom teeth removed Thursday. It's Sunday earlier this morning my teeth on one side were hurting more than the others and when I brushed them it felt like they had popped. I pulled the toothbrush out and spit in the sink and it was bloody and nasty. I took a cotton swab with warm salt water over the back upper part of my mouth it had green looking slime the first time the second time it got darker and looked like a brownish color then eventually started being just blood. I went out to dinner tonight and ate some boneless wings. I came home and brushed then used gauze when I took the gauze out my top stitch came out too and now my mouth is bleeding like crazy. What should I do?
