Pain within 24 hours after tooth extraction can be relieved by cold compress, ice water or ice cubes can be applied to the face for 5-10 minutes each time, and hot compress is not allowed. Pain more than 48 hours after tooth extraction can be appropriately hot compress. If the pain is serious 2 - 3 days after tooth extraction, it may be caused by infection.
