Wisdom tooth

How long after having a wisdom tooth removed should the bleeding stop? Its not bleeding very heavily now (was removed about 5 hours ago), but still bleeding a little and can taste blood. Oh, and by the way, ow, it hurts! x

hmmmm... I've only had one out and it bled through to the next morning, but only a very small amount.
Try paracetamol for the pain and try to avoid hot drinks until it settles. If it hasn't done so by tomorrow go back to the dentist. I had one out a couple of years back and it didn't bleed too much at all.
