Asked By:Alonso79 in Ireland, IE

I am in to the clinic tomo for my post op review. will only be able to see a nurse as the surgeon don't see the patients for weeks if not months post op. The painkillers are still needed as my right ear is very sore and seems to be swelled much more than the left. The anti-helix is protruding way more then the helix in both ears and I am concerned about this along with the possible haematoma / Infection that might be behind my right ear. Please view my pics and give some insight. Thanks :)
