Possible: This is certainly possible. Best bet would be to notify your surgeon. Should be someone on call for the group. Another options would be to contact one of the Healthtap physicians. You are on the general website. Go to Healthtap and sign up. You can send a picture and this type of problem can typically be resolved on line.
