Question Infection

I had my breast augmentation on Dec. 18th (saline unders, transax ) and yesterday I noticed that the incisions looked irritated with a bit of pus). The Ps clinic was closed so I went to the doctor's office. She gave me fucidin and a prescription for penicyllin incase it got worse over the holidays.

I would like to know if this will cause more scaring?? Also, the PS told me to massage the incision and wash with soap 4X/day. Should I continue to do this while it's infected?
Thanks
