Had an tooth extraction, why does my mouth hurt?

I had a molar extraction done a week ago and I have a thobbing pain that seems to be in my jaw and upper teeth on the side where the extraction was done. After about 10 hours the motrin will wear off and my left side of my mouth will ache. I had a canker sore in which the dentist said was large an may be why I was feeling pain, so they put meds on it and also checked for a dry socket, they told me to come back in a couple of days if it still hurts. Anybody have any ideas of what this could be?

If the pain is getting worse, you might be getting an infection. If the pain overall is decreasing, its probably nothing to worry about.
