ZSR staples not falling down

It's 13th day post op. Zsr ring has been loosen since 3 days but staples are not falling. First pin was fallen a week ago and in past 3 days only 1 pin fall down. Looks like the process of ring falling taking long time. What I read about it once it start falling it takes 2-3 days to entire ring removal but this is not happening in my case.

Is this normal or should I try to pull out ring gently?

Update- last staple fallen today. It took 45 days to fall down all staples with silicon ring. Finally I am happy that there was no manual intervention needed from the doctor to remove any staples.
