For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I had a septo-rhinoplasty(nose job for medical reasons) in December last year and one of my stitches didn't dissolve as it was supposed to,the ENT surgeon advised me to leave it in unless it starts to bother me as it would mean cutting the lining of my nose to remove it now which could cause more problems.It is still there now almost 10 months later!
If you are worried make an appointment to see your GP or practice nurse who will be able to advise better than any of us lot.

In the same vein........How could I know if any of us lot is claiming to be a medical professional but is really not at all?
That is why it is always best to advise someone to see a GP or practice nurse about these things is it not?

Very occasionally stitches don't dissolve as they should. See the Practice Nurse at your GP surgery. No problem removing any that don't disappear... just a little 'nick' and a slight pull! If the stitch hasn't gone after about three weeks then make an appointment with the nurse. Hopefully all will be resolved by then.
