Stitches coming out...

Hi ladies I've noticed tonight I have some string hanging out. My operation was 12 days ago. Did any of you get this? I'm really worried it's failed. 🙁

Usually stitches loosen off around 4-6 week mark and around same time the wounds draw in tight.
If you go to to top of the genitourinary home page there are some information pages on recovery.
I agree with jacque that if you are not in pain probably nothing to worry about.

Thank you all, there's no new pain. I think I'll call tomorrow just to check but I think it will be okay, it just freaked me out at first! X
