Hole in one of my healed sutures

I had surgery on the 1st of June for my endo really deep excision and after about 2/3 weeks my stitches completely healed and fell off now my bottom one of my nicker line had a small hole in and is very sore and puffy red, now I’ve seen my doctor and a nurse a week ago that said it totally normal I for one stongrly disagree. Anybody know if I need to seek more medical help??🥺

Hi there, my port incisions kept reopening- I was told I was doing too much and to slow down. Eventually they healed but it took a while. The nurse at my gp surgery said that it heals on the outside, but takes longer inside and so when I did too much I was undoing the good work my body has done. If it’s worrying you, take a photo diary and if it doesn’t heal or anything then go back to your doctor with the evidence of how it’s changing. Xx
