Hello sir....
usually it is normal of having pain after wisdom teeth removal and the pain will gradually reduced within a week after removal...however make sure you wont have DRY SOCKET which will be more common afte removal of wisdom teeth..
DRY SOCKET is one which is due to dislodgement of blood clot or improperly formed blood clot in that area..
MANAGEMENT OF DRY SOCKET:
**Irrigation with saline
**ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL PACK has given to alleviate the pain
you need tovist dentist to rule out the cause of pain...if there is dry socket then immediate care is necessary...
if you are a smoker please stop smoking as the smokers are more prone to dry socket
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur clinical examination and management

Nothing to worry. Its common for wisdom tooth surgery to give you some trouble. But just visit your dentist once to confirm that you are not having dry socket. Because dry socket is very common in such cases. And the symptoms or severe pain occurs mostly starting on 3rd to 4th day...
Next Steps
Go for check up and follow the instructions along with timely consumption of medications.
