Loose stitches?!


Question: Hey there, I recently got circumcised, (5-6 days ago) and some of the stitches seem really loose, is this normal? What if they fall off?

You better let your surgeon know of your concern, you should of let them know a little earlier though, most of the healing would already of occurred and it will soon be time to take out the stiches anyway...
Loose stiches may mean that the cut skin may not heal properly, leaving it more susceptible to infection and scarring.
Best of luck.
