I don't think I've ever heard the slang term of 'dry socket' used to describe it before but it's also highly unusual for you to have a tooth extracted and experience problems with your clam bucket. were you anaesthetised with gas?
If it's that painful you might have an infection and you need to rinse with warm salty water 2-3 times a day. Trust me, it works as I've had to do it a couple of times as I haven't been to the dentist for a check up for nearly 2 years thanks to Slit-eye Fever.
Can I suggest you whack yourself in the balls really hard with a mallet. It won't make the pain go away as such but I'm assured it will take your mind off it for a little while.
You're welcome.
