is it normal for the stitches on my circumcision to be yellow? The skin around seems fine and there’s no pain or discomfort. Been using antibiotic ointment twice a day as recommended and made sure to keep everything clean. Just abit unnerving.

My stitches were black for a few days think that was dry blood they then went cream/white coloured then started dissolving after 3 weeks , after the 5th week they’d gone , they just itched !
