Hi.
I had LTHR on March 6th 2019. I seen my surgeon last week and she told me the swelling might last up to a year and a half and that this is completely normal. Not really encouraging but at least it's normal. Elevation and ice seems to help a bit but mine still swells up at night on a regular basis too. Good luck
