Jaw surgery gone wrong

I had lower jaw surgery only, mandibular setback by 6mm to correct my bite.  I am now 5 months post jaw surgery and my face has gone from being symmetrical to sticking out on the left side.
It appears the angle of the mandible (lower) jaw is sticking out. The left side looks like I have a permanent abscess. Can someone help in terms of how to correct this?  Also I am having sharp pains in my lower molar teeth and found that the screws have perforated the roots of these teeth. What treatment should I have?

I had my orthognathic + genioplasty surgery, it is...

I had my orthognathic + genioplasty surgery, it is day 12 and I am starting to panic!!!

I had a mandibular set back of 7mm and sliding genioplasty to bring my chin forward by 4.5mm (maxilla was not touched)

My bite is okay, the orthodontist reviewed me and is happy with my bite

My genioplasty however feels like my lower lip is glued to my chin and I can't seem to move my lower lip properly when I talk. I am lisping and when I make facial expressions I can feel my lips and muscles pushing against the corners of the genioplasty addition. Literally it feels like the genioplasty chin part is bolted high up on my lower teeth and stretching my mouth to smile is hard. Also my lower lip is slightly smaller but thats not the main concern right now.

I can't even talk properly! I feel like I've got this thing stuck in my lips/chin. Is this normal? sorry about my long email. I am just panicked. My lower lip feels tight and not functioning ????

A lot of the facial swelling has subsided but I seem to have this double chin which is something I have never had before.

I would really appreciate your thoughts! I really am worried about not being able to talk properly :(
