Most of my stitches have dried out and are covered in dark yellow to brownish scab, some of the stitch trapped in scab fall out last night but one of the stitch was, only half out and the was trapped in the scab . It wasn't coming out by itself so I touched it, and the was paining from inside the skin where it was embedded.
Should I pluck it out? Or wait until it comes out by itself? Bcoz it pains a little when it touch anything since it is already half fallen but is trapped in scab

I’m on day 8. I had 1 stitch just below my peel hole get stuck on boxers during a morning erection. It half came out then the rest fell out in the bath an hour ago. It’s kind of yellow where it was now. From someone I’ve spoke to that’s kind of normal. Nice to know other people have stitches pulling out as well
I would leave it alone. Can’t say I haven’t pulled one or two out myself but that was after a month. You risk ripping scab off by trying to pull it out of a scab and that will just delay your healing.
