Are Liquid Stitches Safe For Geitalwarts?

I just recently had genitalwarts removed and the doctor didn't use any stitches to close the wounds. I feel the cuts are a bit large to not have stitches and seems that they will not close without them. That being said, is it safe to use liquid stitches to close the wounds?

Hi and thanks for the query,
The most important thing in wound closure is that the edges of the near by skins should be in a proper close contact. What is most important is the inflammation and consequent reaction, that shall lead to the formation of the fibrosis (tissue) to close the wound. You should worry most to ensure if adequate measures were taken to fight against any probable infection instead. For the wound, I think no worries for now. Kind regards
