Help, Wisdom extracted, painful to swallow and throat inflammed?

Help, I had my left wisdom extracted couple of days ago. Last night had painful difficulty swallowing and breathing, couldnt sleep.  I can hardly open my mouth to see what is going on, although i had little peek through a mirror and flashlight.  My airways are minimised and my left side seemed to have swollen up really bad.  My tonsil is huge and is clogging up the little aiways i have left.  It feels like I'm choking all the time.  Im in so much pain and i dont know what is going on?? My dentist didnt prescribed me any antibiotics so ive been taking normal painkillers and rinsing with salt water.  But its puzzling why 3 days after the extraction it got this worst, i thought i was healing well until this happened?

Post-op complications are commonly encountered after lower wisdom tooth extraction. Going back to your dentist to have a follow up exam is advised.
