Incision Opening Up and Green Discharge Coming Out?

Mamabear1108
I am two weeks post op. I had tummy tuck and breast lift. My TT incision is opening up and there's a good size hole and green discharge coming out! Bright green!! It's so gross! The area is also red around it. When I asked my surgeon she told me it was dead skin?? I would like some other opinions please.
