  Avoid touching it....and call your Dr asap. The morning will be ok...as it is getting late here,....

It could be you are rejecting the stitches.....

also it feels Wet around the area

[patman817]

well I can feel a hole now with internal stitching popping out and it feels very warm

  Hi no it should not be splitting....do you have any liquid coming out....no matter how little....make sure you let your Dr know ASAP about this....he/she may want to get you an antibiotic ointment to apply to help prevent an infection and  they may want to review the incision to see if it needs to be restitched.

Keep us posted/

I may have a problem my surgical scar is splitting. the wound seems to be opening. I don't know if it's normal or not

  Ummm first I was given a RX that took me further out post op with my pain meds.....and I slowly tapered off....you are still newly in recovery....so, I would let you Dr  know you RX is getting light and the OTC meds are not helping....at this point you should just be changing your med schedule not the meds....JMHO
