Dermatologist 's  Response
Dear Bailey

Welcome to Healthcaremagic!

I have reviewed your concerns. I think that what is bothering you is most likely an infected hair follicle or a stitch of the absorb able variety. When such stitches are applied , they gradually begin to dissolve by themselves but not before our body's defense mechanisms have recruited certain cells to the area to eat up the threads.

It would help if antibiotic creams are applied to such a lesion as that will kill any germs that could be causing infection.

It seems that it is because of this reason and there is no cause for worry as it is just matter of time before the problem vanishes. Please revert to me if there is any fresh development or delayed healing.

Best wishes from Healthcaremagic!
