- In other words, a truly bomb-ass line-up to be part of.
Maybe two weeks ago I underwent a bit of face renovation.
The first four or so days that followed were relatively grim and uncomfortable, (both in and out of my face) but my mouth is more or less at ease again. Thank you Newcastle dental hospital.
However, I have a niggling little question that I don’t want to google because of the inevitably sickening results- but really, how long does it take for dissolving stitches to dissolve?
And are they more likely to just unravel and float awkwardly in your mouth until they eventually extricate themselves from the gums on their own accord and shuffle down your gullet?
Or do they actually dissolve?
Because, say you had some stitches that came only partially undone and say you discreetly gave the inch long piece of offending yarn a gentle tug and say that the tug made it all too clear that the yarn was still very much attached…I mean, do you yank or wait?
It’s gross.
Earlier today I pulled a face and said “I think my stitches are coming undone” and Ideal Brown said rather honestly that this offering of mouth news was one he’d prefer to not have heard.
Pff. Enjoy.
Here’s a bit of a drawing.
