HELP with csection incision 2yrs old

I DO NOT SEE MY MESSAGE POSTED YET SO HERE GOES TRY #2... HI. I have a 4 1/2 yr old & 2 yr old that I delivered both by csetion/repeat c-section. The problem is my incision still 2 yrs later is still bothering me. I asked my dr about it,they have dismissed it saying that it is all normal. I cannot believe this is normal---i have not spoken to anyone else with a csection that experiences what I have EXCEPT a friend of my sisters, that just incision just opened up AFTER 4yrs! I am really scared it is going to happen to me! This incision has bothered me with my 1st child & with my 2nd they would not do a vback with me because of the pain, so I had to have another csection.---This is what I feel: I feel constant tugging at the incision on a regular basis. The incision pulls feeling like an elastic band depending on my activity level. Sometimes I experience burning at the incision site as well, mostly if I do situps or abs infrequently. The pulling is so prominent it interferes with my day, because I am constantly checking to see if it opened up! The chances I know are slim---but I have a huge "speed bump" still above my incision, that I cannot do crunches to get rid of because my incision bothers me too much regurarly but it is much worse if I do an ab workout or situps I end up paying for it later.

ANY ADVICE on where to go now, and what I should do? Should I worry?
