Leave it alone...: Based on what you described about your 0.5-in still healing incision, leaving it alone and continue the same care to keep it as clean and dry as possible. Most likely, this unhealed incision should seal in 1-2 weeks. If not as usually expected or worsening, seek timely evaluation. Best wish to health & incision healing.
