A friend and I both had our necks lifted by the same really wonderful surgeon, a few months apart. I just had mine a month ago, and hers was 5 months ago. Since a couple of weeks, she has 2 or 3 horizontal rolls in the front of her neck -- the trachea area. They are each about an inch apart. She has been swimming at the "Y" every day or 2. Can you please comment on the possibilities here and whether or not swimming is a bad thing for her neck?
