I had lipo on my calves in August. Is it normal to have throbbing hot sharp pain in my knees and my calves don't feel right?

Asked By:npedroza in Artesia, NM

I thought I was healing ok but now I have throbbing, hot, sharp pain in my knees and my calves feel like they are not getting blood to them (kind of like I have a rubber band around my knees) and they hurt all they way down to my ankles. Is this normal will it go away. I am still wearing my compression hoses.
