Feeling a twitch under my healing scar after having mohs surgery on my face

Asked By:Jen82569 in Guilford, CT

I had Mohs surgery on my face just left of my nose 3 weeks ago. I had subcutaneous dissolving stitches as well as stitches to close the wound. The outer stitches were removed 2 weeks ago and I am now feeling a twitching or a wiggling movement under my scar. It almost feels like something crawling under my skin. Could I possibly be feeling the subcutaneous stitches dissolving?
