Stupidly slipped over in the shower yesterday and cut the underside of my chin. I now have 5 stitches. I was advised at the hospital to get them removed next week, but I'm going to Ireland on holiday on Saturday, so will need to get it done there. Asked if I could wait until I got back and the dr said no, as risk of infection and/or scarring. I'll be in Cork in a weeks time and just wondering how to get this done and what the options are. I'm not sure if there are walk in clinics etc, and whether my EHIC will be enough to cover the cost. Any advice gratefully received
