Episiotomy stitches have fallen out

I had an episiotomy 2 weeks ago. I was told that the stitches would just dissolve but this morning after a shower a couple of the stitches fell out. Is this normal or do I need to see someone? The wound looks ok although is a little open at the edge.

mention it to mw if you're still being seen by them, if not I would ring post natal ward/community mws x

Bits of mine fell away when they were dissolving. Wondered what the hell it was in my pants for a second.
