Hi,

I have gone through your complaints and reviewed the attached photograph.

Everything seems to be normal.

I think you should wait for another week’s time for everything to be completely normal. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Ok because I read in one place that the pain should reside in 48 hours and I still have some on and off throbbing and stiffness. I worried I may have an infection with no redness on the inside. I have a bit of health anxiety and just need some reassurance it will subside and wasn’t an abnormal reaction.

Brief Answer:
Pain takes longer to subside in some, don't seem to be having infection

Detailed Answer:
In some individuals the pain takes little longer to subside.
Infection is usually associated with fever, severe pain, tenderness, swelling and warmth.
In your pictures there is not much of redness and swelling . You don't seem to be having infection.
Don't worry and relax and give it some more time.
