Hi Paula,
I had swelling and pain for quite a while after the surgery, and then i had another surgery in top two weeks later! The pain increase was mainly due to the nerve endings re awakening, there was no heat or redness...BUT I saw my Dr or called my BCN when I was concerned just to get peace of mind.
Did you have axilliary clearance? Are you doing the exercises for post op? They help get everything moving and draining...
I suggest you raise these concerns with your Dr of BCN, you can never be to careful!
Best wishes
