Some patients may have redness after surgery.  It is best to contact your doctor for treatment options (not the Internet).  There may be many answers or opinions on the Internet but your doctor (who performed surgery on you and knows your medical history) can give you the best advice.

Everybody is different.  Some people can probably harvest 10,000 grafts and others only 5,000.  Your doctor can give you the best estimate since your doctor is the one that examined you (and knows you best).

Hairs harvested or taken from your donor areas will never grow back.  It was harvested and relocated to the area where you wanted more hair.
