    I’m 11days post op today and noticed the other day that my stitches under the right boob was sticking quite far out at one end. Today I’ve noticed that the stitches are now Sticking far out on both sides. does anyone know if this is normal ?? I haven’t had stitches before so have no idea! It’s not hurting me or causing me pain but I’m scared in going to catch them or accidentally pull them! Any advice? Thanks in advance (ignore the scratches and red marks- they are caused by the strapping) xxxx

    No expert but from things iv seen I believe that’s pretty normal, think they come out at the ends because that parts healed maybe!!
    Ring you pc if your concerned but I think it’s normal xx

    @witwoolou thanks Hun!:) the bits that were sticking out has just dropped off when I took my bra off! It doesn’t look any different like it hasn’t come open or anything so should be okay! Xx
