Is this a spitting stitch? (Photo)

Thanks for your inquiry,  by the picture it may be a suture or it may be some early scar formation, hart to tell without an exam.  Maybe try your primary care doctor, good luck. 

Hello,Thank you for your question. It may be, or it may be a pimple. It doesn't appear concerning. I recommend that you contact your Plastic Surgeon and let them advise you. All the best

Hello boobies4me.It does not look like a spitting stitch, but a plugge or blocked gland. You should go see your plastic surgeon for a full evaluation and treatment plan. Best wishes, Dr. Aldo

Dear Boobies4Me,

 

The clarity of the picture is a little difficulty to tell, but typically a stitch spitting up will look like a small whitehead and when you are able to see the material, you can pluck it out.  You should at least contact your treating surgeon with photographs and e-mail.

There are many irregularities that can occur in the suture line after all types of surgery, ( spitting absorbable sutures, scar tissue, folliculitis or small cysts (milia). I would recommend a quick visit to your operating surgeon. It appears to be a small epidermal inclusion cyst that could be easily unroofed and extracted. Good luck to you.
