No: This may represent a complication related to your surgery such as bleeding or infection. As it is so close to the time of your surgery, it would be best to contact your surgeon or at least be evaluated at an urgent care.

Ear: Unfortunately it is since the Eustachian tube is near that area but sometimes it can cause a middle ear infection. You may need antibiotics
