Swelling and pain would suggest something not healing swell and possibly infected. Is the area hot to touch? Have you a temperature and/or Amy other symptoms?
When you say ‘checked with a doctor’ did the doctor see you in person and actually examine you?

Yes the doctor poked and prodded it, because I said it was tender but not in agony he said it's done. The swelling is stressing me out- it looks like I have a huge package!Sad

How are you this morning? Is the swelling any better or worse? How do you feel on yourself? Any temperature or other symptoms?

@heyyyyy I had this and it turned out a had a serious wound infection that started at the hospital post op. I was told it could have turned into more serious sepsis. I'm still dealing with it now and I was hospitalised for a week for this. Please get it checked out as mine was also dismissed earlier.

It could be hematoma as well.
@Taybz How long ago was this?
