Sorry to post this in AIBU, but no one answered my post in General Health.

I had a tooth extraction on Thursday and don’t seem to have a visible blood clot. The area is white/grey and looks a bit like pus. Does anyone think this could be dry socket? It’s a bit painful but not too bad if I take paracetamol every 4 hours.

I got my tooth extracted on Wednesday 26th July and after one day I had white/grey stuff I’m also pregnant. Have you been back to the dentist? I just assume that it wouldn’t have been healing after a day. These two photos are 12 hours apart. This morning it was just a blood clot. I thought yoghurt was getting stuck to it. I’ve also rinsed with salt water multiple times today and nothing is shifting it.

Mine looks the same, was that normal stage of healing for you? And how long did it take for it to heal?

Does this look like I have a dry socket feel slight pain around the gun area but that could be from the extraction
