Left Nipple Dimpling Inward when I Flex Chest Muscle Muscle at 25 Days Post Op. Should I Be Worried?

DaleAnn82
When I flex my left chest muscle, the incision site under my nipple dimples inward. I noticed after my 2 week post op exam that under the incision there is this "knot". I do not think that it is scar tissue. Could it be dissolvable stitches underneath? The dimpling is exactly where the "knot" is. My right breast does not do this. My right breast has not "dropped" completely yet either. But my left hasn't moved since the day after surgery or at least not much. Should I be worried?
