Molar extraction and blood clot. Very worried! Please Help!!!!!

Hi everyone! Yesterday I had a molar that was abcessed extracted. The dentist sent me home with antibiotics and gauze for bleeding. Today I notice there is a lump in the tooth socket its dark in color, It's about the size and level as the rest of the teeth. Could the clot get that big or is it possibly gauze stuck in there or something else? Thanks!

Yes, most likely its a clot.  Don't disturb it.  It should heal on its own
