If I develop axillary web after miradry should I let it resolve itself or see a doctor?

sassysammy
I had the first miradry procedure a little over 3 weeks ago and for the past week I've been having pain in my right arm when I move it. I can feel the cords (webbing) I believe it is axillary web syndrome. Others on this forum have said that it should resolve itself but it's painful. Should I see a doctor or let it be? I can't see the webbing but I can definitley feel it. My left arm is completely fine. I've tried ibuprofen, ice, and massage and its still causing me trouble
