After 18 months it’s very unlikely that it is any infection. Is there any pain ? Or any watery fluid from the site ? To confirm you can get an ultrasound of the area. But for all this a clinical examination of the site is needed. Please visit your Surgen. Or any other general Surgen in your area. It is mostly nothing. But a doctor has to palpate(feel) the area to confirm.
