Patient's question:
On September 19th, I had my foreskin circumcised using absorbable sutures. Around the 28th, the doctor asked me to come in to trim the suture ends, but the process was very painful, like being pricked. In the days following the trimming, the scab on the wound has started to fall off, but after it falls off, there is no trace of the absorbable sutures left. This makes me suspect that I was tricked into using non-absorbable sutures, and the trimming of the suture ends was just a pretext to actually remove the sutures.Doctor's answer:

However, they are designed to be removed to ensure early and complete recovery. This is normal and there's no need to blame anyone. As long as your wound heals well, that's what matters.
