Hi
It looks like one or two stitches have begin to dissolve early. Usually this is of no concern if there is no pain or bleeding.
If the gap is small then the usual course is to let it heal by itself. Only very rarely it requres restitching. The yellowish stuff is part of normal healing process.
Hence if there is further bleeding or pain then contact your doctor otherwise just keeping the area dry would help.
