6 month inflamation??

[babble]

I just visited my PS after 6 months post-op.  My left side kinda sticks out, is red and flakey on the skin (kinda like excema), and is kinda sore, like when I touch it, or when I run.  Around the nipple the skin is white, then it fades into my tan.   He says it's inflammed, and gave me an anti-inflamitory cream.  Does anyone have any idea what this could be?  My PS seemed rather dismissive.
