Has anyone had trouble with the upper portion of their scar not healing properly. It's been 6 1/2 months and mine is still quite raw feeling and looking. I was told by family they may want to do skin graft, is this true? I'm truly scared. I spent 8 days in CCU due to fluid on my HEART, AFIB, and collapsed lung. And yes I still have pains in my chest, rarely but it feels like a pinching pain. I also am very sensitive to the wiring in my chest. I can feel it sometimes.
