sounds like we are both in the same pain! I had all 4 of mine removed and I've been changing gauze all day. I had my teeth removed at 9: 30 this morning and they are still oozing a bit tonight at almost 11. Keep changing you gauze and if possible suck on some popsicles. I've been eating the Flav-O-Ice ones and using my icepak. it is great for the swelling. I hope you heal well. I just got up from a long nap. Take Care. Remeber to try not to do any sucking.

the white stuff they pack your mouth with is gauze. can be found in any first aid kit or pharmacy.
if you have like a towel you don't mind getting bloody you could cut it up small enough to help the bleeding. basically that stuff helps your blood clot in the area where the teeth have been removed, forming that clot it vital to healing.
as far as drooling with blood, you may have that for a few more hours until the bleeding stops and the drooling will stop once your mouth isn't numb anymore.

the best thing to do is to go to a local pharmacy and purchase more gauze. fold it in four and put it on the extraction cite. you need to bite down on it for an hour without changing it after that you may change it every half an hour until the bleeding stops. i know it doesn't taste well but you should also avoid rinsing, this can cause the blood clot to come out and continue to bleed. also avoid exercising, drinking through a straw, exercising and anything that can cause the blood clot to come out. after 24 hrs you can rinse lightly with warm salt water.

HELLO,
IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP PRESSURE ON THE EXTRACTION SITE BY BITING ON THE GAUZE THE DENTIST PUT IN AND NOT TO CONSTANTLY REMOVE THE COTTON TO LOOK WHERE THE TEETH WERE.
BITING ON A COLD WET TEA BAG WILL HELP CONTROL THE DROOLING.
THIS WILL STOP IN A FEW HOURS BUT YOU SHOULD NOT KEEP CHECKING ON IT ALL THE TIME.
YOU WILL BE FINE. LET THINGS HEAL, REMEMBER TO GENTLY SWISH WITH LUKEWARM SALT WATER FOR 30 SECONDS TO SPEED UP HEALING AND TIGHTEN THE GUMS.

Also, if you can't go to the pharmacy, just get like a paper towel and put it in your mouth. Or even tissues. But the tissues, you must watch out for. It can rip in your mouth and swollow if.
