Large and swollen ear lobes one week out? (Photo)

Asked By:JJrb in Houston, Texas

One week post op on a face lift and last night my ear lobes swelled up - they are huge. Was not like this before. They also itch. The stitches were removed three days ago. Is this swelling just moving down or should I really be concerned? I had small ears before but these lobes really concern me. My Dr. in NY is out of town.
