Welcome to health care magic.
1.These are post operative complications expected in some individuals.
2.Due to there immunity status and other underlying medical condition.
3.I would also recommend you to see the treating doctor, the doc will examine the post operative site and check for any infective process.
4.At the same time an ultrasound examination of post operative site to check for any collection / oedema or features of cellulitis in the site.
5.If there is collection some time it may need to open and dressing for better healing.
6.Depending on immunity status one will be comfortable after 5 days and other 10 days, so keep patience and follow the treating doctor. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
