Hello, I am currently 6 weeks post-op from a breast reduction with gummy implants. I seem to be spitting stitches and have been doing so for about 4 weeks. I have been in contact with my surgeon and he reassured me that everything is fine, and my body is just trying to get rid of stitches and that I do not show signs of infection. I am, however, very anxious as I seem to have elevated skin inside the wound. I would just like a second opinion. Thank you in advance.
