Have my stitches come undone?

Question

I had a mole removed from the wall of just in side my vagina hole 6 days ago, I was given dissolvable stitches and was fine for the first 5 days with no bleeding or nothing. Then last night I started to get bleeding and I am still bleeding now, it is not a gushing but it is bleeding continously - is it possible that my stitches have come undone - should I go to hospital?

Thank you for your question.Call your doctor's office or the answering service for the doctor on call.If you feel the bleeding will not stop or is getting worse, yes, go to your local emergency room.

I hope this helps. Best wishes.

The logical thing to do is bee seen immediately  by a surgeon to figure out what is happening. The internet can not give a sound medical advise
