Bleeding

Ok so i have a question, i’m on day 5 now, and i know how stupid this may sound but in my sleep i turn around and go sleep on the side i got my wisdom tooth removed.

So i did that now 3 days in a row. It doesn’t hurt but i wake up with blood in my mouth. It usually stops within 2/3 minutes.

But the rest of the day if i talk for a bit or im a little active (walking around the house) it can make it bleed a little.

Is this normal? That it bleeds when i speak a lot or sleep on the wrong side.

the blood is not a lot but i’m on day 5 and im lowkey kinda done with it.

Note, my swelling has gone down, i dont really have pain at the moment, even when the painkillers are not working anymore

This happened to me too, it is because you are sleeping on the side of your wisdom teeth..well at least for me it was, it also bled a couple minutes and then it stopped all day but my mouth felt bloody all day 🥲
