Excessive bruising and exposed stitches? How worried should I be? 9 days post op BA. (photos)

Asked By:bigs14279

I am 9 day’s post op, I had a crease incision. My right breast seems to be healing properly with minimal bruising but my left one is extremely bruised but not too painful. I also noticed today one of the dissolvable stitches poking out through the glue. *cue instant panic* it’s also Saturday and my PS office is closed until Monday... what do I do!? First picture is of bruising second is of the stitch..
