Yellowish/Brown Discharge from incision after Breast Lift with Implants. I am 2 weeks PO. (photo)

Hi, I'm 2 weeks PO and I've started seeing a weird yellow-ish/brown discharge leaking from my incisions on my left breast for the last few days and I'm concerned. My 2-week appointment is still 2 days away and I wanted to get some clarity before contacting my surgeon. The drainage also has a slight smell when I wipe it from the crease of my breast but I'm not sure if it's the drainage alone or if it's a combination of drainage and sweat. Does this look like this fat necrosis or an infection?
