Sharp Internal Pain at Site of Sutures from Breast Lift/augmentation?

ffgirl7
I had a breast lift and augmentation 8 weeks ago..Today I have sharp internal pain at the site of the sutures, about a square inch under the breat half way between middle of breast and under arm. At times it hurts when I move, sometimes with pressure, but wearing a bra and allowing no movement helps. It feels as iif someone is digging and moving a pin in raw flesh. The sutures used were wire. I think I ripped them and now one is digging into the injury. Possible? What should I do?
