I had earlobe reconstruction in my right ear 1.5 weeks ago and had no problem. This Monday I had it on my left, but the healing process is extremely different so it got me worried, as the earlobe is VERY purple and swollen (about 3 times its normal size, I'd say). My surgeon reads my texts but doesn't respond, so I'm at a loss. Thank you for reading.
