Suggest Treatment For Severe Knee Pain Post A Knee Replacement Surgery

Had knee replacement 10 days ago and knee is extremely painful today over the incision sight which is under a gelatinous bandage. It has been on since surgery and will be removed Tuesday. Have been using polar pak and doing exercises but today is really bad.Bandage is filled but not leaking. Leg is swollen even with support stockings on and elevation. Can I wait until Tuesday to see the doctor? Taking a Vicadin every 4-6 hours.
