Your dentist or doctor should prescribe medication for you. It's important to take this medication exactly as directed. Do not take any other medication without consulting your doctor first. If you were not prescribed anything after your tooth extraction and you are in pain, call your dentist or doctor to request pain medication along with specific directions on how and when to take it. Do this immediately. Additionally, from the dentist, you should have received a print-out on what to expect while healing with steps to take in order to avoid a dry socket, stop excessive bleeding, and precautions when eating or drinking. You especially need to know how to avoid a dry socket as this could cause severe pain and prolong healing. Do not partake in exercise, bending, or lifting for at least the first 48 hours. Get rest and take it easy. An ice pack can reduce swelling thus easing your pain somewhat.
