Hi in some cases there can be heaviness expected in surgical extractions. To relieve this you can start with warm water salt gargles twice or thrice in a day. And to reduce irritation just try to keep that site clean. Rinse after every meal. Keep that in mind that no food accumulation should be there in that open socket.
