Asked By:njlift in NJ

Since about 5 days ago when I take my sports bra off to shower, there is a bit of yellowish dried discharge where the bra sits under my right breast (new occurrence). I wash the bra between showers. Today I peeled back the steri-strips a bit & noticed a small (.5 inch) hole at the T-junction on my right breast. It is oozing white/yellowish discharge. I'm not sure if there is a hair or some sort of spitting suture next to it. I put Aquafor on it & covered with a gauze pad. Should I be concerned?
