Avoid hot and hard foods in the first days after surgery. Give preference to soft and cold foods, such as yogurt or puree. Drink through a straw with caution - the negative pressure created can draw out the clot.
Rinsing your mouth in the first 24 hours is contraindicated. This can lead to the blood clot being washed out of the socket. If you need to rinse your mouth, use a mild saline solution and gently swirl the liquid, avoiding vigorous movements.
If you need detailed information about the treatment of alveolitis after tooth extraction, I recommend that you read the material on the Village Dental Medicine website https://villagedentalmedicine.com/alveolitis-after-tooth-extraction-causes-symptoms-and-treatments/. There you will find useful recommendations for the prevention and treatment of alveolitis after tooth extraction. After tooth extraction, the doctor usually gives specific instructions. Follow them strictly, especially in the first 24 hours after surgery. Smoking significantly increases the risk of developing alveolitis, since nicotine and tar can damage the forming blood clot. Try to refrain from smoking for at least 48-72 hours after tooth extraction.
