I have developed an open sore under my left breast that continues to open at the scar line? (Photo)

Darbydoodle
Breast Lift 3.5 weeks ago. I went to my PS who I trust and is a board certified PS. He said it would heal & to apply dry gauze daily. So I am really asking for reassurance that this will happen. He said it may get worse before it gets better (which is what is happening now) It seems to be separating more at the scar line 2 - It's tough to wear a supportive bra with the sore. Is it ok at this stage to not be wearing a bra as the instructions were to wear one full time for the first 5 weeks.
