Gum inflammation

Hello. I am a girl 18 years old and I was at the dentist a week ago and I was pulling one of my wisdom teeth out. Since then, my gums have become swollen and inflamed. It really hurts, and it is annoying. Is this normal? Should I do anything. I am not taking any medications, but I will if it is necessary. Give me an advice.

No, that is absolutely not normal. You should go to the dentist as quickly as you can. The inflammation may become an abscess, and you wouldn't want to have that in your mouth, believe me. Doc will surely give you some pain reliever. Don't confuse that with a cure. Good luck and go check this swollen gums out.
