Looks like incision is opening. What can I do to help keep it from getting larger? (Photo)

slypig2006
The bottom incision of my "anchor" wound close to my sternum (for orientation purposes) is open and linear. No foul odor or pain. I can see white inside the wound. I've been keeping it very clean and dry. Any suggestions?
