I had otoplasty procedure done a little over 3 months ago. I wore my headband for 6 weeks all day and night. Removed only for showers. I don't know if these bumps are from the permanent sutures or the dissolvable sutures that took so long for them to fall off? There were still small pieces sticking out at 8 weeks. Have they healed well so far? My ears don't hurt anymore if I bump them lightly. I have no discomfort or itchiness.
