[|AI|]  Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. There will be slight discomfort or irritation for another two days. This can occur either because of the wound contraction or because of sutures. Nothing to be panic. Continue the medicines(both amoxicillin and metronidazole) for another two days. You can use topical metronidazole ointment, apply over the gums where you have irritation, apply 3-4times daily for 5 days. Do saline gargling. Get the sutures removed, if they have give non-absorbable sutures. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
