A week after wisdom tooth extraction, if there is a vague pain, it is usually a normal post-operative reaction pain. The local nerve endings may be irritated due to the trauma of the extraction. As long as there is no severe radioactive pain or a putrid smell in the extraction sockets, there is no need to pay too much attention to it and you can consider taking some oral anti-inflammatory drugs. If there is severe radiating pain, the possibility of post-extraction dry socket is considered, and timely follow-up is needed for necessary treatment. If there is only some vague pain within a week after the wisdom tooth extraction, you can not be too nervous, it is just a post-operative reactive pain. This reactive pain may also be related to the individual’s constitution, some for a short time and some for a slightly longer time.
