Port/Skin/Stitches...FRUSTRATED!!

Hey everyone...especially smashing pumpkins. I had surgery 2 weeks ago on the 3rd. The surgery went well. But now I need 2 get my stitches out and i can't get the ones by the port out. It looks like skin grew over it. Idk what to do.

Also, the skin above the port looks like those water filled boils you get on your skin. Whenever I press on it, liquid comes out. And the skin feels numb. I don't think its infected. But the stupid thing is hard to take care of. Any suggestions?

Thanx

Hi... I had trouble with getting a couple of my stitches out too. I used ice and rubbing alcohol then dug it out with tweezers. I'd be worried about the blister you've got though. If it's not infected it just might get that way. If I were you I'd go see your doctor to evaluate it.

Good luck,

Jessy
