Im sure this is a bit late to post to but i had my staples in 4 of my incisions for 3 days and then the ones around my big incision and my drain came out a week or so after my surgery. neither hurt

wow thats a bit crazy that they are leaving them in so long. did you ask them when they were going to tak them out? I would say that as long as they are not red and irritated you are ok.

Hey in Australia my doc does by keyhole surgery. No drains or anything and uses dissolvable stitches. Great no catching or tourture having them removed. Just leave dressing on for four days take it off and away u go. Everything is internal.

No staples, no stitches and no drain! My doctor used the glue on the incision to seal it up!

When I had mine removed it took maybe 6 min and it did not hurt a bit. I don't do well with pain, but it did not hurt or even feel uncomfortable. My incisions felt better after they were removed.

Good luck!
