You should: discuss this with your surgeon who performed the operation. Surgical wounds of this type sometimes heal in secondary fashion.

Wounds heal in 2 wks: This is unusually long for a wound of this nature to heal. I suspect that there was some problem that delayed healing. Have you gone back to see your surgeon since your operation? if not, you should go back as they may have to place a few extra stitches to close the wound and also make sure that you do not have local infection of the wound.
