Instead of getting all panicked and rushing to the E.R. or something, why not just call the doctor who did the surgery, tell him what happened and see what he says.
If they did not call you back, then call them again, three days ago was Sunday, they were most likely closed! Report It

    • As long as the bleeding has stopped, you're ok. Try not to pop any more stitches tho!!!
    yes get your butt to the doctor...no pun intended ;)
    get some duck tape so your dick wont fall off too
    no just kidding if it is not infected you will be OK the stitches are suppose to fall out just keep it clean and keep an eye out for infection
    maybe you are fiddling with yr dick to much if it is bleeding and hurts, sure go back to the same doctor and show him your bleeding dick he will sort out for you, perhaps he may put a stainlees steel can with a Vee he for you to pee in order you wont fiddle again, Cheers
    GO TO THE DOCTOR ASAP!
    hi has it stopped bleeding if so don't worried about it i has the same thing happen to me it is normal
    But if you are worried about it justed go and get checked out at your doctors thay can help you
    The stitches are there to stop the wounds from opening up and to make the blood clot. Sometimes Doctors use stitches are designed to deteriate..... these are meant to fall off. Other times the stitches must be cut off by the doctor. Ask you parents whether you have to go back to the doctor to get the stitches out... chances are they are dissolvable stitches and you do not have to go back to the doctor. Your parents will know the answer to this question.

    Sounds to me like the stitches are dissolvable. It isnt easy for a stitch to fall out.
