There could be many causes for the swelling. Presuming it's the normal inflammatory reaction post an extraction, you could have anything soft at room temperature.
Precautions :
-Nothing hot or spicy to be consumed
-Gargle after meals to ensure the area is free from food debris accumulation
-Do not brush vigorously in the extraction area
-try and keep your tongue from touching the area unnecessarily
Next Steps
Follow up with the dentist who has extracted the tooth to evaluate the wound

Hello dear it's happens after 3rd molar / wisdom tooth extraction. Need not to worry, it will take quite some time. Take medicine properly, do warm saline gargle and be on liquid or soft diet. If possible talk less.
Next Steps
visit your dentist
