Have I got necrosis or infection after a facelift after 11 days? (Photos)

Asked By:vixweir in Northampton, GB

Hi, I had surgery abroad so have no follow up. I've got itchy skin around the right hand ear and I've noticed its very red and spreading. I've drawn a black line to check if its spreading below, and it is slowly. Could it just be a reaction to daily dose of betadine, as I used to get eczma in this area. Your help is much appreciated. This is the down side or going for surgery abroad I hadn't considered.
