I am two weeks post op for my breast implants with a lift and I noticed a white string sticking out of my nipple so when I sanitized a tweezers and pulled on it I did not realize it was going to be about 6 inches long. I am sure this must be an internal stitch because none of my outer stitches were this color. I bled a little, put bacitracin and a band aid on it. Am I going to be OK or is this going to cause me any problems it was pulled out? I am worried I might be bleeding on the inside now?
