Should I pull and snip a dissolvable stitch that is poking out?
NumeeMar 17, 2015
I am almost 3 weeks post op from a Breast reduction and lift. I am healing well with no complications but I can feel a little end of a disolvable stitch poking out under my breast just to the right of where my Anchor meets the lollipop stem. I would use sterilized tweezers to grasp the stitch and use sterilized scissors to snip it enough that it goes back under my skin. I think I could do it but not sure if I should.
