stitch prob

had lolli lift and ba and got about 3 or 4 stitches poking out what shall i do they dnt hurt or catch just looks funny x

Yep have the same a few sticking out near each end of incision.

Also just found a tiny opening in the incision which hasn’t sealed/closed like everywhere else!

I have an opening in mine had it for over a week now, keep going back to my nurse every 3 days and its still not healing! its really annoying me, still cant show or anything properley yet, im a bit annoyed cause it should of healed by now, ill be 3 weeks post op on thurs.

What did nurse do to it when you went back Emma just leave it?

My nurse tried to pull mine out but they didn’t budge so she just trimmed them up. A few days later it was poking out again so my bf pulled it gently and it came out. Now it’s healing properly, I had a few stitches poking out and my incision felt lumpy but all ok now. X

ive been back like 3 times now, i dont have any stiches poking out its just slightly open, shes put iodine on it twice now and then just a dressing but then the 2nd time i went a different nurse put sterile strips on but my usual nurse said they dont need it and that it will heal naturally on its own, doing my head in now though. what did you have done? x
