I had a facelift neck lift eyelift 2 /12 weeks ago . I'm happy so far with my results but I have time yet I'm still very swollen . My only issue is this skin knot on my scalp where the stitches were . It has been hurting since day 1 and still now hurting . It starts there and travels to my left ear. It's a stabbing pain . What can this be .??
