Circumcision Help

[TossItUp]

Hi, I’m 16 & it’s been almost 4 weeks since I was circumcised. I still have all my stitches & my doctor said they were dissolvable stitches but none have dissolved yet. About 20 minutes ago I pulled a stitch, luckily I didn’t rip it but it did pull quite a bit. I’m wondering if this’ll heal properly. I’m getting really worried. Should I take the stitches out myself? Or should I get my doctor to do it.

Thanks

What help you need?

Leave well alone - why would your doctor lie to you?

Hi NOWHARD i have some problem i lately decided to put coconut oil around the stitches, so you think that can help too? I’m also on 4 weeks this coming Friday will be complete 5 weeks and non of the stitches have come out.

Ok. I’ll give it a try. Are you sure that I should take them out? They are dissolvable stitches.

Personally i would just let them be, i had mine all the way til the 6th week and they came out themselves

That sounds like the right idea. Do you thnk I should take them out if they don’t dissolve in the next 1 1/2 weeks? By then it’ll have been 6 weeks.

Ok. I’ll see what happens in the next few days & if they’re not dissolving/falling out, i’ll pull them out.
