Is it normal for an incision to be tender and firm 8 weeks after breast augmentation? (Photo)

amjspartan22
I had BA 8 weeks ago, silicone, under, inframammary incision. The incision on my right side feels firm and tender at the edge of it. Left breast has felt fine all along, but right is still a little sore and tight. They look the same (very happy with the result) but this tenderness by the incision is making me a little nervous. I don't see my PS again until 1/20/15. The incisions healed very well.
