Stitches after normal delivery
Its been approx a month I delivered a baby by normal delivery. I got 6-7 stitches after that. Few of then are quite ok but having a little itching. 2 stitches are seeming like that didn't dissolved till date and have black thread like appearance. 2 are seem like a little white dot in the center .....I am worried that it is all ok or have some infection as it is around 28 days. In starting I used Betadine on stitches, but the procedure is quite slow, so I used Placentrex gel for more than 8-9 days....still not comfortable with stitches.....
