Ear Kept Bleeding After Otoplasty

odemadrid
I recently had a otoplasty. The day after the surgery, my left ear kept bleeding, and the doctor stopped it using electrocautery. When the bandage came off, I noticed a mark in the frontal side of my ear. It looks like clotted blood now, but he only suggested using neosporin. What should I do?
