Will my hard lump go away after liposuction?

S.E143
Hello, I had liposuction done on my stomach, flanks, and back on December 9. Since post-op day 1, I noticed that One side of my waist was lumpier than the other. Nurse told me it was just swelling. I have been wearing a compression garment. The uneven side has recovered quite a bit. I am still worried though because the lump on my waist is very hard. I have been massaging it around 30 minutes a day, and I already started exercising. My garment indents into the uneven area. How can I fix this?
