i was just drying my wound after a shower, and my stitches are one long stingy bit holding everything together like running stitch, and it's anchored at one end, and i noticed a bump at the anchor so i rubbed it and it came loose, and like a cm of stitch fell out! it bled a little bit, but doesn't hurt, and nothing seems to be opening up as it where. should i do anything? or just leave it to its own devices?
 
I would prob jst get it checked. Stitches usually come out after 10 days so as long as ur over this time and the wound appears closed u should b ok, but always best 2 check 2b on the safe side xx
 
Don't worry! They now do running stitch in many places because aparently it heals quicker. It was quite some time after that I had a bit on the toilet tissue. Unless you feel like it would need another stitch pppout in you don't need to see anyone - it is supposed to vcome out. It s just taken a while that s all sorry cat omyn on keyboard
 
I had a running stitchy type thing too and the HV took it out about 2 weeks after I had James. Maybe just keep an eye on it?
