Hello, Got my wisdom tooth extracted today, 3 hours ago to be precise. I have a few questions, please do spare your valuable time in answering them. Much needed help. Thanks. 1. How Long does the bleeding continue? 2. Time for swelling and pain to reduce. 3. When can I start smoking and drinking alcohol again? 4. Is rest required to stop the bleeding? Any other suggestions to help heal faster is totally welcomed. Thanks again.

Bleeding stops within 2-3 minutes of extraction but if you continue to irritate the extraction site it will again bleed. Do not spit. Within 72 hours pain n swelling stops but if it continues consult your dentist again.
