I have an open wound where anchor T is from lift/implants. I'm 7.5 weeks post op. Will it heal on its own? (Photo)

Asked By:tlk0209 in Houston, TX

This area was stabbed over but the scab fell off. The area when I run my fingers over it over my sports bra feels like a hole. I'm concerned. My left boob healed normally, only this side is having issues. What should I do? Will this heal on its own? Should it have healed by now?
