I am 10 days post 1750 graft FUE surgery. The donor area is still very tender and painful, is this normal?

It is best to follow up with your doctor if you are having issues after surgery.  Your doctor would know the specific issues of your case.Most people don't have pain after a few days.

It is normal to experience pain on donor area after surgery. Keep using the pain killer and you may use Aleo Vera gel instead of ice for relieve. If the pain still goes on after 5 more days better to see a doctor. 

Most people have little or no discomfort by postop day ten; some do develop a more chronic burning pain that can last longer and often responds to anti-inflammatory agents such as ibuprofen.  Given that your discomfort has lasted this long I'd suggest a call to your surgeon

Everyone heals differently but most people don't feel any type of intense pain following an FUE procedure. At 10 days post-op you are still in the range of having occasional pain or discomfort. If your Dr has said that it seems normal, just give it a few more days and if you still have concerns, seek the advice of  your personal doctor in your area. 

The donor area is almost always normal within a week. I would worry about some problem at a month if it is still bothering you so see your doctor or another doctor who can recognize in infection is that is what the problem is
