Hi
You might have developed haematoma,collection of blood.
Sometimes,it gets infected and lead to pain,fever.
Please consult a surgeon and get an ultrasound of that area.
If there is any collection,it has to be drained.Then,antibiotics and anti inflammatory medicines have to be taken.
Do not worry.
It can be treated.
Wish you speedy recovery.
