22 days after circumcision, not a single absorbable suture has fallen out.

Patient's question:

22 days after the circumcision surgery, none of the absorbable stitches have fallen off. Do I need to have them removed? Also, there are black scabs at the stitch sites.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the information provided above, it seems you may need to have your stitches removed.
The absorbable sutures have not fallen out, so they need to be removed. I recommend you go to the urology department of a hospital for examination and treatment, have the stitches removed, and apply sterile gauze externally.
