Is It Normal To Have A Large Gap Between Stitches On A Finger?
I cut my finger on Thursday and had 4 stitches. 2 thru my fingernail and 2 further down. I get the stitches out on Friday but the tissue is bulging thru 2 and 3rd stitch. A larger gap between stitches there. Is that normal or should I see doctor sooner?
