How long does it take to recover after a lower facelift?

mdoyle58
I had a lower face lift 4 months ago. Still have numbness in my ears and face along with ringing in my ears. Also still alot of tightness in my neck . When I put my head down it feels like there is a noose around my neck. Will this go away and if so when? I am an athlete and I run 8 to 10 miles a day and this still seems to make the tightness worse, how long for this to go away also. My plastic surgeon is out of state and not helpful at all when I call his office.
