Stitches

I had vaginal hysterectomy and posterior and anterior repair and I also had to have a bladder sling on October 21. My check up isn't until November 21.
If anyone that had the similar surgery could help answer this question please.
I have one area where part of the stitches are exposed on one side of my vaginal opening. It's something that I just noticed a few days ago. I'm hoping I didn't pop the stitch or maybe it's just part of the dissolving process? How would I know if I did pop it? Would there be bleeding? It's kind if annoying and irritating and I'm worried. I feel like I have to push that area back up in fear that something has come loose. Maybe I'm just paranoid. Any help is appreciated until I can call my doctor for his opinion.

Re: Stitches

I did not have repairs but wanted to offer some support. I'm sorry you are having to figure this out. Sounds like your Dr may need to take a look to give you an answer. I hope all stitches and repairs are intact. It can be stressful in the meantime wondering what's going on, and not being able to see the area well doesn't help. I hope you get answers soon.

Re: Stitches

Thank you greyown. I'll be calling my doctor because you're right about not being to see everything and know if it's supposed to be and feel that way.
