Its been 5 days since l had two teeth removed. And this morning l woke up and theres blood on my lip and in my mouth. Why is the extraction site bleeding ? Its a little sore but no different to any other day. Is this bad ?
I am 16

and theres not loads of blood, just a little blood (dried) on my lips and around the tooth a little..

also any advice on how to get rid of the taste after an extraction ?

Blood is not typically present after 5 days but l still would not worry about it unless it continues for another few days, especially if it is very much blood.

You can just give the dentist/oral surgeon who extracted it a call and ask him. l am sure he would not mind giving you advice

Be sure you are following all the guidelines your dental practitioner gave you for proper care after your surgery. Have you been using straws? They can cause serious damage with abscesses. Try gargling gently with salt water and eating only lukewarm foods. Call your doctor is office if the bleeding is severe or does not subside or if the pain increases. An oral infection can be very dangerous!
