Mild bleeding is common with extraction , especially with third molar extraction
Mild swelling and restricted mouth opening fairly common and temporary , it will reside in a day or two, provided you follow all the post op extractions
No smoking
No alcohol
Warm sal water gargle after 24 hpurs
And you need to follow all post op medication not just one pain killer!

Hello. Visit your doctor for a check up... follow all instructions given by them. Do mouth opening exercises . Reflection of gum flap, bone drilling and stitches/ sutures are given to remove an impacted third molar. Some pain, swelling, restricted mouth opening are common. Happy to help.
