Salty taste in mouth 10 days after extraction.

Had wisdom tooth and the next one removed on the 8th, so 12 days ago and I still have a salty taste coming from the socket. It seems to be healing although still quite tender and I made it bleed a bit accidentally yesterday catching my tooth brush on it. Should it still be tasting funny at this stage and if I ignore it will it eventually go away or do i need to speak to the dentist. This is my first extraction and because it's on the top it's really hard to get a good look. Any advice really appreciated.
