Is It Normal To Have A Scab Over Frenuloplasty Stitches?

Hi, I had a frenuloplasty 4 days ago and it started bleeding again 72 hours after the operation when I woke up in the morning. A large scab has now formed just above the stitches. Is this normal, and will it hinder the healing process please? What should I do to help it heal? Thanks

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and I would like to say that during the healing process the scab formation takes place if this scab removed before the complete healing time then it could bleed, but this is nothing to worry, just need to be careful that scab should not be removed, take care and have a nice day.
