Asked By:Affectionate931923 in Houston, Texas

Its been over a year since my breast augmentation. I had under muscle with internal stitches. About a month ago a small protruding bump popped up and now it is bigger and red. It does not hurt. It is on my left breast at the end of my incision. Should i be concerned? Is this normal? I mostly wear sports bras and dont wear wire bras. Im 41, 135lbs, 5'4, olive complextion. Dark hair
