Is gum swelling normal for #1 after #2 got extracted and bone graft?

Last Tuesday I got #2 and #20 extracted and bone grafts as well. Successful procedure. My stitches came out about 5-6 days later. I'm no longer in pain except for the gum on the inner side of #1. It feels kinda loose and flabby if that makes sense. It hurts because the swelling is making it go past that tooth so when I bite subconsciously it hurts. Is swelling next to the extracted tooth normal or is something wrong?
