Hello proper instructions has to be followed following extraction of the tooth. Most importantly not to eat and drink anything? hot and hard from that side for 2 days. And also not to rinse vigorously on same day. For swelling you can do ice application from outside on that area 3-4 times a day. Also start doing saline rinse 3,4 times a day. For pain you can use painkiller like ketarol-dt (2 tablets together dissolve in water) rest visit your dentist for follow up. Regards.
