I'm 14 days out, and my incisions were closed with glue and internal clear stitches. The glue started coming off about 7 days out. Two incisions are totally healed, with all glue gone. One of them, was mostly good, but had a tiny glob of glue that remained and got caught and came off.

Immediately I noticed there was a hole. It's like the glue was a plug, and now I have a nice little healed hole, with a red muscle looking bottom. It looks similar to a piercing hole. It's dry, not painful or anything. I sent the surgeon a pic, and he said to keep it covered and let him know if it turns red. I'm almost positive this is *not* a case of the wound opening back up.

So, what will happen to this hole? Heal from the inside? It's not bothering me, but it's just weird and he didn't tell me how long it should take to heal, or what I can expect to happen.

Ideas? (not really a complication, but I didn't know where else to put it)

What happened with your incisions? Mine are starting to lose the glue and two look a bit scary to me.

My hole really hasn't changed much. I had one that looked like yours. It was a scab, and when it came off, it was a perfect little healed incision. It looked much worse with the glue and scab!
