How long do the stitches normally stay?

Hey Misa, it doesn't sound alarming to me, but you could call your doctor just to be sure. Don't do any heavy-duty laughing or smiling for awhile though :)

I guess its just so new to me I'm scared by anything. Thanks.

My doc told me to expect some stitches to come out, and one did the next day, so I don't think it's a big deal at all! Hope this helps to alleviate your fears.
