I have the littlest tails of strings coming out of my healed incisions, i thought it was just part of a little scab all this time but i was trying to get it off and realized what they are because one frayed, i have one on three out of the 5 spots. did anyone else have this happen?if so does it go away? I am calling dr tomorrow.

Stiches coming to the surface. My doc said trim them if you want but don't pull them. they will fall off. It was weird. you could always put a bandaide over them.

Good luck.

They are absorbable sutures and will just dissolve.
