Is a burning feeling near incision normal?

aswith224
I had my BA on Monday 12/11. I got under the muscle and incision under my breast. For the last 2 days I have been having a burning/stinging feeling at one of my incision sites. It occurs when I get up or move in a certain way. I called my PS office they said it is just nerves but I’m still concerned. There is no swelling/redness/heat but I can see some old blood under the steri stripes.
