I had my BA 400 cc silicone under the muscle 1 1/2 months ago and my left incision is hurting. Is this normal? (photo)

I just came back from traveling to Colorado where it was snowing and was really cold. Could that be why my incision started hurting? I also feel that my incicions are bumpy. Is that normal at 1 1/2 months?
