I’m 4-5 weeks post op and my incision appears to be opening up on the edge. Should I be worried? Why is this happening? Is it possible the sports bra was rubbing my incision and irritating it?

Answer: Not normal I would rec going to see your surgeon to make sure everything is OK ASAP. Anytime we are talking about a patient with a breast implant device, you want to make sure all incisions are healing without issues, IF the wound opens several weeks after surgery you could have an infection OR yes your garment could be riding on the incision(s) causing the wound to superficially open, either way, best to see your surgeon and make sure it is nothing more than a minor issue.
