Hello,
Where is the swelling? Since when are you suffering from swelling? When were you operated? Are you Diabetic?
Post compression recovery chances may depend on duration and severity of compression etcetera. Please consult your neuro physician so that he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
