I had coolsculpting done 13 days ago and I had been really swollen and in pain since then. The swelling seems to have started going down but I've noticed now that I have a lot of lumps where the applicators were. I was in too much pain to massage them before but I have started to. I am worried they won't go away. i also haven't seen any reviews of anyone with the same issue. Seems like people report one or two lumps. I'm very worried.
