The places where it's still swelling and sore is very warm, like I am running a fever in my jaw, if that makes any sense whatsoever. The two sockets in the bottom jaw feel very irritated. It's NOT like something cold running over exposed nerves or raw bone, just irritated. At night, I run very cold to very hot, and in both extremes, I can never get comfortable.
You're probably best to call the office. It sounds like you may be developing an infection.
