Hi Kathy - that seems like a long time - I would at least call the doctor's office and describe what you are seeing/feeling - especially the warmth and increasing size. As my daughters, both RN's would say, "They took my x-ray vision away, so I don't know what it is." Our family standard for these things is 7 days and no improvement (or getting worse) seek medical advice.

Thanks. It has been 6 days since the surgeon saw it so I’ll give it a few more days and then call if no improvement. I appreciate the advice.
