4 months post otoplasty, when can I sleep on my side and put pressure on my ears again?

golfer34
I had otoplasty done 4 months ago and was just curious if I should still be sleeping on my back or using something like a sidesleeper that has an ear cut out in it didnt know if it would matter much or not at 4 months out, could use some advice or recommendations, thanks!
