Stitches still in

Spent almost 2 hours back on the ward today went to have stitches out following the wound popping open after the staples were removed on 3oth April, only to be told by staff nurse who removed one stitch that she was not happy to continue as she thinks it will open up again if stitches removed so waited for the Dr to agree which she did so I have stitches left in till next Tuesday which will be 17 days.......hopefuly that should work they will be removed 1day before my 4 week Op anniversary.....bit of a set back.
But feel good just a bit fed up over the stitches senario....
But happy with overall recovery. I feel good, and much happier to be honest that stitches remain in I will be happier next week with their removal.

Pleased too hear you are feeling better.

Bit of a nuisance about the stitches but expect it is better if they are left in you don't want too be popping open again.
