Vagina swelling after lipo? How can I stop this or soothe the swelling?

Shellyxoxo
I am 5 days post op of stomach, inner thigh, flank, and banana roll lipo. & a few days ago my private areas started swelling. It now looks disgusting and is very uncomfortable. It looks like a penis. The nurse said it is not uncommon but how can I stop this or soothe the swelling?
