Asked By:Nice43086 in Houston, Texas

69 and had lower facelift under local June 22. There was packing in one ear, causing severe pain. I asked it removed &got some relief but ear continued to hurt. ENT said no wax no infection. I am still spitting stitches around that ear & targas is lax, stitch came out. I feel nerve pain around & inside the ear under the targus.Stitches from lift 27 years ago still poke thru my scalp and cause pain. So I'm prone to that or they are too close to surface. What to do? Help!
