2 Weeks After Lipoma Surgery, Still Have Pain and Swelling. Is This Normal?

Top of shoulder side of neck area. General anaesthetic. As painful as day1 and it's been two weeks. Heavy tight pulling sensation. Pain extended all around the 2+1/2inch scar around shoulder area. One side of scar has been very raised since day1 No bruising. Surgeon had to remove unexpected large cyst that was underneath,full of liquid but was benign luckily. If anything was damaged during surgery would symptoms be as above? A local Doctor had a look and isn't sure about it !!! Thank you
