[|Human|] I have a nodule of skin hanging over where my wisdom tooth was extracted. Its about 4mm by 2mm and fairly bothersome when Im eating. Because its the weekend my dentist is closed so I dont know who else to ask. Its been there since the extraction and is slowly turning a dark red from the fleshy pink colour it used to be. Any guesses or suggestions as to what Im dealing with?
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, A skin hanging from the site where wisdom tooth was extracted can be due to normal healing process. The extraction site is initially filled by blood. Slowly a hematoma is formed. Hematoma is collection of blood, and slowly it undergoes organization to heal up and form a ridge of soft tissue. Infection of the extraction site needs to be controlled. In case there is pain or pus collection at the site, you need to see your dentist immediately. The skin that has grown over the extraction site is new to you, so it is appearing troublesome. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
