I had CoolSculpting 14 days ago on my flanks and now have hard swollen flanks. Is this normal?

Both sides are hard and swollen, the bruising has gone down but the areas are still tender, inflamed, red, hard and warm. Pain was so bad day 1-6 I went to urgent care and they put me on prednisone and Vicodin for a few days. I got it done at ideal image and went back for a check up, they said it could be PAH but it’s very uncommon to have it happen this fast. Has anyone had a similar situation this early post treatment? Did it resolve?
