Hi Dr C-

fingers crossed that the picture appears.

Thanks for taking a peek. Any info/recommendations about the reaction to the sutures is very much appreciated!

I've seen a fair number of incisions like this, I agree with your surgeon in that it does not look like a deep infection. I also agree with him that antibiotics are a good idea for a few days. Might not be a bad idea to clean it with peroxide and put neosporin on it twice a day. Any signs of it getting worse see him right away.
