Stitches

[maffew]

Oh, dear. Sounds like you had a particularly bad day that day. I'm very sorry if I sounded at all flippant. BTW, you'll never get those tricky little knots undone with your bare hands, especially if you've numbed them with ice first!

You didnt sound flippant. If I'm honest I think I need a pro to do it, though it literally looked like a case of cutting a know and pulling them out slowly with some tweezers Yeah cant say it was my finest hour oh well he's up for attempted murder by the looks of it

Do you have a General Practicioner? A local doctor or nurse could remove them without having to go to hospital?

I had a small growth removed from just above my eye, which had stitches. I went back to the hospital to have them removed only for a very grumpy nurse snap at me, 'Why didn't you go to your doctor, to have these removed?'
I just sat there meekly saying, 'I didn't know I had the option'.
Perhaps she'd had a bad day.

Yeah my GP is on holiday playing golf no doubt. It literally shuts down for the summer here. My wife was pregnant even the gynacolagyst spic took 6 weeks off when the baby was due its pretty much A and E or DIY

I had metal stitches (well staples really I suppose) when i had a hip operation a few years ago
Great fun when the nurse came to snip them in the middle then pull both ends out
Quite painful

Was she fit though? Did you act all brave

Short video to be posted if you take them out yourself

AAAnd they are out. Though I didnt film it kinda wish I had If anyone ever wonders if you should take your own stitches our I'd go see a pro.

It wasnt that bad actually except for one of them as I had no scissors and had to - well it wasnt the most pleasant thing.......

Needs to be more Rambo than that. It sounds like he needs to cut the stitches out.

Thats what I did. And just with my fingers and nails

Good man. Hopefully you will get some compensation payout for your troubles.
