Will my surgery process fail if my stitches come out of my nose as opposed to dissolving?

This morning I blew my nose and my stitches came with a large clump of dried mucus. I did not force it and it easily came out. Should I be worried or is this normal? Only reason why I am concerned is because the stitches are meant to dissolve.
