How Long Do Stitches Take To Dissolve After A Gallbladder Removal Surgery?
I had my gallbladder removed on March 18th and my scars are healing but I thought there were scabs on each of them but I just realized it was actually stitches. I was able to remove 2 of them with tweezers and the other is still there... Will they dissolve away on their own??
