Hi Danny, I know you have been to ER already, but to me it sounds like you should go back, or wait until Monday and talk to where he had his procedure. It doesn't sound too sinister thankfully, but something is wrong. It could be an infection and he may need to rest a bit more. I'm not an expert, sorry, have to say that disclaimer 🤷‍♂️
