About 2 weeks post op my breast lift incision starting opening at the scar line. The opening continued to get bigger and basically was an open wound. PS did not seem too worried and gave me ointment and gauze to cover. Will this opening ruin my scar? Is this typical in a breast lift? With the lipo before my belly button was not protruding outward and not it is. It that common?

I had a breast lift (no implant) two weeks ago. I was anticipating going back to the gym at 3 weeks, is that correct?I typically do 30 min cardio 4x a week and weight lifting 5 days a week. I have been told no excessive exercise, but I am struggling to understand what constitutes excessive?
I'm 2 weeks post op so I know it's really early to tell but I'm worried about the amount of puckering and creases along the incision scar, will this go away? I had a lift with no implant should I have got an implant to make my breast more rounded? And also is it normal that the incision comes below the natural crease underneath the breast it seems really long to me, any advice would be appreciated as I don't see my surgeon till 12 weeks post op although I have seen a nurse to remove the dressing
I had a 7 day post-op follow up appointment and my PS had an emergency and wasnt able to see me. I had to reschedule an appointment 7 days later since she is only there on Wednesdays. Is two weeks post-op too long to wait or is it no big deal?
I had a breast lift ( no implants) done 17 days ago in Mexico. Now both breasts have an open wound and puss is coming out. I sent photos to my doctor who say this is normal. Two questions: 1. Is this normal- see photos. 2. Would any doctor be willing to see me even though he didnt do the surgery? Should I go to a dermatologist or try to find a plastic surgeon locally who would see me?
There is one area of my lateral suture line (anchor) which appears to be infected and open. The area is the last part of all my sutures to close and has been seeping everyday. Today I noticed that it is a bit white pus. The smell almost smells yeasty. On the same breast, the outer area of the horizontal line is very sensitive and red and raised. I tried to massage it, but sharp pains prevent me. Is any of this normal?
