I am 4 days post op. Went back to Surgeon when massive swell took place right side and he said hematoma . He said no surgery required only ice and ibuprofen. 4 days after surgery my right side feels like it going to explode! My ear next to lobe front back is painful and so tight. My cheek also. The blood below surface skin when will it go?! It feels like drum skin! I have stopped using ice now and do i use heat packs.. please help! I have read swelling will stay..i look dusfigured. so sad.
