Tooth extraction - is this healing fine?

Hi everyone and apologies for the gross image

I hope there’s someone who can help me with this because I’ve been anxious about it since it was removed.

I had my tooth removed 72+ hours ago. This is what it’s looking like now. It had a lot of granulation tissue on it before I slept last night and I woke up this morning with it gone. I’m experiencing a lot less pain/soreness today but I do also have an abscess.

Please help!!

Yep looks exactly like mine did about a month ago :)

Thank you so much Sherbet!! Think I’ve just drove myself mad worrying about dry socket ahaha.

I did exactly the same but that looks like really healthy healing to me! Same tooth I had removed too. My socket looked a lot darker but still healed without dry socket, which I was terrified about!
