Hospital Jargon

[missprim]

As some of you may know, I had an operation on my toes 10 days ago which meant having stitches.
I thought someone (nurse or doctor) said the stitches were to come out in 10 days but I haven't had an appointment sent.
Just looking on my discharge paper it says,

Discharged home on simple analgesia with F/U in Nurse led wound R/V clinic in 10/7 Mr (name of surgeon) OPD clinic in 4/52.

Do you know what this means?

Re stitches, I have had several surgeries recently and all have had to have stitches removed - they just won't budge on their own
