Sometimes it takes incisional pain from surgery longer than we would like to resolve. Certainly, as the surgeon said, if you see redness or pus from the site you should be seen immediately. It is never wrong to get a second opinion if you feel as though things are not going as you expect. Consider going so if you continue to have problems. Good luck.
