Hello, Doug16125! How are you doing?

If you had a tooth pulled, that socket is going to be open and sore for awhile. It takes awhile for it to heal up and stop being tender.

However, if you've got a severe ache, like you did before the tooth was pulled, you may have developed a dry socket, which is going to require proper treatment.

Do you drink alcohol? Do you smoke?

Those are both things that can cause it to happen. Have you consulted your dentist?

You could have a dry socket from having your tooth extracted. The dentist should be able to tell.
