Circumcision stitches area

Hi, I underwent circumcision about 6 days back. Rn some part of stitches are pointing outward and poking when I wear any clothing.

There is some redness that looks like an open wound along the stitch . There's no blood or pain tho. Some hints of clotted blood along the stitches. The problem is the wound seems to get opened a little in the night because of nocturnal erections.

Is this a cause for concern ?
