Open portion on circumcision

3 weeks and 4 days post op. About 6-7 days after surgery I popped a stitch directly under the center of my head from getting in and out of my work truck. Went to the doc a few days later who said it was fine it will close up on its on but still hasn’t. No bleeding or oozing but everything else is healing up nicely except for that one place hasn’t joined together still appears opened. Any suggestions?

It should heal by secondary intention but that takes longer than sutured healing. If you are worried, though, do consult your doctor.

I popped about 4 stiches and it was in 2 places and mines healed suprisingly well
