Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor Team. Understanding concern about your health. As your two tooth had been pulled and you feeling sensitivity or tenderness in area around those tooth, need not worry about it. It's nothing serious, the space around the tooth from where two teeth have been extracted is empty now, and it causes deposition of bacteria, food particles. These bacteria keep on accumulating and improper brushing in that area builds them up which causes sensitivity, itchiness in that area and that is the reason your tongue keeps on going in that area due to pressure built due to bacterial deposition. Hard bump on the roof could be because of any sharp tooth in lower arch which keeps on irritating upper arch as this is very common occurrence after extraction. What you need to do is maintain proper hygiene of your oral cavity. Brush at least twice a day. Use flossing interdentally to remove debris. Visit your nearby dentist for cleaning of your teeth. Get the sharpened edges trimmed. Apply colonel in the sharp bump area it will go away. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get well soon. Best wishes,
