4 months post op Voluma in cheeks, now having pain. Do I need to be worried?

ohcay
I got Voluma injected in my upper cheeks exactly 4 months ago. I had pain, swelling, and bruising for about 3 weeks but have had no problems since. Until two days ago. My right cheek started hurting where I have filler. It’s sore to the touch but also hurts if I make any kind of expression or talk. If my face isn’t moving it’s just a dull sort of ache. This morning my left cheek started feeling the same way, only where I have filler. Do I need to be worried?
