    Dont worry its completely normal, im nearly 7 weeks and I still have an undissolved stitch hanging out. On my 6 week post op the nurse tried to pull it out but it wouldn’t budge. Nurse said it can take up to 3 months for them to dissolve so dont worry. Mine seemed dead healed and one day just started to look red and irritated but again nurse said it was fine 🙂 xxx
