Thanks for your Query. Yes you should visit as soon as possible. AS u have circulation problem you should not take a chance to wait. Get your INR and blood profile and coagulation profile done. Do daily dressing of stitch line . Take analgesics and antibiotics. will help you to recover soon . Gte well soon . Take care . god bless you.
