What Causes Sutures To Come Out After Circumcision?
i am 58 and just has a circumcision six day ago. The stitches are starting to come out, but on one side, where several have come out in the same area, there is a small gap and sagging of my skin just below my penal glands and a slight gap at the incision spot where my skin separates from my penis. Is this normal?

Hello,
I think it is healing and the stitches are coming out. If the wound is closed and ends are stuck together there is nothing wrong with it. A circumcision may need 7-10 days to regenerate.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
