GET HELP: Call your surgeon's office right away. People who work with the surgeon have an experience helping their patients after the surgery. Pain, numbness, swelling, extra bleeding, and other symptoms often occur after surgery. Depending on what was done for you, these symptoms may be usual, or may require extra attention and follow-up care. It is important that you stay in good communication with them
