How long until Hematoma goes away?

egodoy
I am 7 weeks post op and My PS told me I developed a hematoma on my right side. Every week it has been getting smaller and going away very slowly, but I'm wondering how long it will take. I'm worried I may need additional surgery to take the hematoma out or that the hematoma will leave my right side more stretchy because it's taking longer to heal.
