Hello,
Some pain is quite normal after surgery. Anyway, if they still look red, I would recommend consulting with your surgeon for a physical exam in order to exclude possible infection of the wound. In such case, antibiotic therapy would be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
