How long does it take for intraoral incision to heal? Accidentally pulled chin implant sutures.

Asked By:ola2 in Newark, TX

25 days post op from an intraoral chin implant. I accidentally pulled my (dissolveable) sutures which really hurt, and now I have a huge bump on the incision site. How long after surgery can I still get infections? And how long will the sutures last?
