1yr old has butterfly stitches

[charlie13032017]

Sooo
My little boy split his head open Monday, so we had to take him to the doctors, they gave him butterfly stitches but the question is... do I let them fall or take them off myself..
They don’t look like I could take them off, they’re all stuck to the scab underneath and I really don’t want to hurt him..

They will gradually started to peel off after about 10 days leave them well alone till then.

Okay good, I didn’t know whether to wet them and get them to fall off like that..

Today is too early for that I would allow the wound a good ten days to heal properly, if you pick them off too soon the scar is likely to be bigger.

Okay, I definitely don’t want to do that.. it’s just smells a little... was hoping I could clean it or something.. I’m debating whether to make a call to the doctor and she what they’ve got to say
