Have I popped/ripped my stitches? (Photo)

September 12, 2015
Asked By:joannabo in London, GB

My wounds were really neat and just a straight thin line. Then I noticed the left was like this. Is it possible I have popped a stitch? Am I going to get uneven scars? I have internal permanant sutures so I'm a bit worried.
