Otoplasty complication. Is this something I should be concerned about? (Photo)

August 29, 2024
Asked By:danmatt in Miami Beach, Florida

I had an otoplasty revision a month ago, and two weeks ago, my stitches were removed. However, yesterday, someone accidentally pulled my ear, causing it to bleed. Now, it looks like this (picture attached) I’m worried about whether this is something I should be concerned about. I have an appointment with my doctor on Monday, but I’m feeling quite anxious in the meantime. Thank you
