Sometimes after difficult extraction similar symptoms do occur which will subside by few days, if not one has to look for other carious teeth &/or gum recession, so visit your dentist who can better guide you after proper examination.

Dear please check whether the extraction wound is healed or not properly. If not consult your dentist, some times unhealed extraction socket causes pain. Also the pain is may be due to receded gums and exposed roots as a result of aging. In these conditions use of desensitizing tooth pastes like sensodent kf will help to get rid of pain and sensitivity.
