I had Lipo on my upper arms one week ago. I am having difficulty with lower arm and hand swelling. Any suggestions?

I have tried two different varieties of compression garments one 3/4 sleeve and one short sleeved both seem to aggravate the condition. Is this typical? Should I continue wearing a compression garment? Also the elbow area is very painful.
