About stitches

A quick word about stitches and removal -
Visible Phallus stitches - the ones you see when you look down - are quite large and you should be able to have them taken out by a nurse, about 4 to 5 weeks post-op - I went to a local hospital on my return and it was done in 10 mins, without having to go through my GP -
Once you are clear about what intervention you went through, any hospital would just take you in and give you a hand with removal of stitches.
Then the nurse tried to take the ones from the lower part of the phallus, at the back, and that was too sensitive, there is NO Point in insisting, just have her stop if it hurts and come back later -
I was regurlarly checking mine myself up until the moment when i could pull on them without pain, thats when they're ready to go -
I waited another 2 to 3 weeks before taking the rest of the stitches out - under the phallus + around the testicles - at that point i was able to give the nurse a hand by holding the testicles and make space so she could access the stitches and make a clean and fast cut.
Make sure you check all the area before getting up so that there's no "leftover".
Its worth the waiting,
and it feels amazing once they're all out , wow -

TIP: As for any medical intervention, you are always given time approximation about how long you should or not keep catheters, stitches, or else, do bear in mind that you're the only one who can really tell how it feels and when u think is the right time -
Do allow yourself to wait a week more if it is still painfull, if ure not ready to void directly from your phallus,
there is no point rushing it and recovery will go faster even if you extend waiting time at first -
It's your body, it's your brain, no one else can know better -
