I had brow & face lift 3 months ago. I'm still in intense pain from burning and pulsing in my temples. Also the stitches behind my ears feel like they will explode. I'm considering seeing a neurologist to see if I have unusual nerve damage. Any advice?
Answer: See a neurologist First of all, I am so sorry that you are still in so much pain. Second, you are doing exactly what I would recommend: seeing a neurologist. Hopefully he or she can get to the bottom of what is going on.

Answer: Throbbing pain after face and brow lift donnajohnson43065, Thanks for your question. What you are describing is quite unusual, especially because symptoms are bilateral (on both temples). I would discuss this with your surgeon prior to seeking the opinion of another specialist (like a neurologist), as your surgeon may have a better insight as to what is causing this, such as deep sutures or implants that may be causing the symptoms. If so, then addressing this (removal) may be a better option than a medication that won't address the underlying issue. Hope this helps. Good luck!
