It’s day 27 since I got circumcised and my stitches still have yet to fully dissolve, should I be worried? I’m a little anxious because I’ve been reading everyone’s stitches are dissolving and falling out within 7-14 days, please help!

You should get them removed by now mate all mine had gone by three weeks
Stitches do their job in 10-12 days maximum. If they don't fall out of their own accord then it is a good idea to remove them (or get your doctor or nurse to do it for you) after 14 days to reduce swelling and avoid 'stitch tunnels' or 'train tracks'.
