Hi Hun, i feel for you… I had prob with my stitches too, the nurse said I had gaps, then thought gauze was stuck in the wound and I had occasional bleeding. Weeks later surgeon said it was just the knots needed taking out and there was a big scab not gauze also my body was rejecting the stitches. I hope you get an appointment soon Hun. They can put more steri strips on for you hopefully so rest up xxx take carexx

Thanks, I think the knots need taking out as aunts who are nurses sed they think that’s what’s wrong and you can see the knot coming thru. Mines not a scab now it’s a open hole, fingers crossed I can get it sorted soon x

Hi Georgina, I’m 4 months post op and have an ongoing issue with stick spitting. Another knot came out just this morning. Send friend request and/or private message if you want more info, this is my specialist subject! See your nurse and get them trimmed or pulled out if you can. X
