Asked By:19years in Nash, TX

I had a mommy makeover September 15. Around 3 weeks post op my wound started opening. It's not infected, I'm on an antibiotic. It opens more everyday. I know this has to heal from the inside out but is there anything I can do to prevent the rest from opening? My ps is dressing once a week with silvalon. ( I do not smoke) should I be going to a wound care specialist or keep seeing my ps for wound care?
