I agree with everyone else, get it checked immediately. It looks infected to me. I am not a doctor, but if this were on my body, I would be at the ER asap. I don't think I would let the same dr operate on me. If he is in denial about what is going on, or made some mistake to cause this, I would be weary. His pride could be making him be in denial about the truth about this surgery. I am posting a picture of my incision 3 days post op, so you can have some comparison. My stitches were inside and the skin was glued.
Welcome to the site and sorry you have to be here. I was also in an accident with an 18 wheeler (he was loaded down with ree bar (sp?)) I was driving an 03 Nissan Altima and he came into my lane.
