wisdom tooth extraction
so i got my wisdom tooth out 5 days ago. i still have a fever, the pain hurts like crazy. i have this bad odor in my mouth and it stinks. is there something wrong?

Any swelling in that area still? The bad taste may be from food getting stuck in there. You may want to call for a stronger pain prescription possibly.
I'm actually taking Amoxocillin 500g and Motrin 600g.

I would worry most about the fever because it could indicate an infection. I would try to clean the area gently and call your dentist. Are you on antibiotics?
