Asked By:awaisthr in Doha, 01

I recently had a hair transplant (5300 grafts) DHI from turkey. I was told by the dr that you'll hardly have any pain after the procedure but 5 days post op I'm having a really bad pain (stinging and burning sensation) in my donor area...which is not letting me even sleep...i asked the doctors over there in Turkey....they said its normal it will subside by the time...but its been five days and the pain is not subsiding I take 3-4 pain killers as prescribed by them which gives me a little relief
