Ok i may just be a baby cause this is the first time that ive had stitches. but my hubby said that its been a week now and they can come out. so i said ok. i gave him my hand. he clipped them and as he went to remove the first one i was in PAIN!! all 14 of them are clipped, but im afraid to let him pull them out! its a sharp pain. now heres where u come in..lol..

I wanted to know is there anything i can do to make them not hurt? (when hes pulling on them)
they need to come out cause he cut them all. but im scared..

any advice on how to remove them, or soak it in water? any tips please....hes calling me a big baby.

Thanks girls

Ouch!...Brandi let them fall out please. The last time I had stitches I let them fall out. I don' t know about anything to put on your hand pain. I think maybe some antibotic ointment.

thats what i asked hubby and he told me thats not possible. cause the skin will grow on top or something...

Did u have urs cut?(stitches)

[reddick2084]

Nope. I tried to have someone help me remove them because they were itching really bad. I think they started itching really bad and then I think eventually they fell out after like maybe almost 2wks. Then the second time I had them I had the dr. take mine out because they took too long too come out. And you're not being a big baby. They hurt like hell.

i just told the hubby pull them! so the one was really bad, but the others came out like a breeze! thanks

Oh my Brandi! I remember getting mine out when I broke my arm after surgery and it felt so grosssss!!!! I hope you are feeling better today.

[Mum2three]

Oh girls! im telling u i will never get stitches again! i might have some nerve damage! my finger looks like a limp wiener!
and theres NO feeling in it. So i called my doctor today and im going to see him this afternoon, hes concerned. and i may need to see a cosmetic surgeon.
but i will update u when i see him. i just hope it is nothing....

[Sabina]

Oh my that must have been a nasty cut! Let us know after your apt. I hope everything is okay.

[Mum2three]

Well girls im back from the doctors...he doesnt think there is anything seriously wrong. but i have to wait 1 week, and if i still dont have any sensation then i have to go back, and he will refer me to the surgeon. im a bit scared. as i dont want to be in anymore pain, or any more surgeries! i have had to many surgeries, and 1 more would to to upsetting. so please just pray that i get my finger back..lol..sounds kinda funny to say that..but i could use it...

Thanks

[Sabina]

That really sucks! I will pray for your feeling to come back.
