Undisolved Sutchers - Safe to remove myself?
I had a cesarean section 4.5 months ago and have recently examined my incision location and noticed 1, possibly 2 dissolving stitched that have not dissolved. Can I remove these myself?

Go for it, i've had more stitches in me from work accidents than there are stitches in a shirt, and lots of times i have taken them out myself, and had never had a problem. there only stitches, it's not like your giving yourself an operation.

oh no you shouldnt touch it at all....it has actually passed it dissolveing time so i would suggest that you go see your doctor...
if you attempt to remove it on your own you could cause the area to become infected which would be doing more damage than good....

you really shouldnt. since they were suppose to dissolve on their own and they didnt there may be something wrong. go to your doctor.

No. See your doctor. By now, there is most likely skin which has begun to grow around it.
