I hope by now you have asked your health care provider about the plastic or nylon thing sticking out of the incision. It's possibly a piece of the fascial suture which holds your abdominal muscles together. Those are meant to dissolve within 6 months. It shouldn't be protruding from the incision but I don't have a clue if it's a serious problem or not. Talk to your doctor if you haven't already.
