Is it normal for one incision to hurt more?

Outofhere
I just explanted my implants two days ago. I've noticed my incision on my right side hurts more. Is this normal? I am right handed and it's not terrible pain, just more achy. Also the right breast seems a little more swollen. Is this in the range of normal?
