My mouth won't open wide enough for a wisdom tooth extraction does this mean I'll need surgery to get it out? I'm really worried about how they'll do it if I can't open my jaw properly.

I'm on day 3 after having my left-side wisdom teeth removed, both upper and lower, and I've been having a lot of pain in my left temple. It's so bad that I can't sleep at night. I'm also worried because the left side of my tongue is still numb. What's going on here? Could you help me understand what's happening and what I should do?
