Stitches

What does having stitches removed feel like?

I have 5 stitches in my lower back from having a mole removed and I'm getting them out on Monday. I'm freaking out! Help!

  1. You may feel a little pinch or pulling sensation but thats it...not as bad as getting the lidocaine injection to numb mole site
  2. like a short bee sting
  3. Just a little pulling or tugging feeling. I had a few dozen stitches in my head and face when I was a kid. It doesn't hurt, not like how I got the stitches in the first place!!!
  4. if you are lucky you wont feel anything. you might feel a little bit of tugging /pressure. if you are having problems let the doctor know.
  5. Hi friend.. It is nothing serious..how is your wound now? There is a feeling of something passing though and irritation and nothing else. ....good luck
  6. naw its not too bad, it doesn hurt at all, i had 5 in my foot, and it was fine the stititches are the ones that kill
