The after pics...

You don't want to see the before pics.... and thankfully I didn't take one.

Before I removed the sutures




Afterwards.



There was a couple of these (no not on me, I could have reached behind my back to take the sutures out LOL) and one still had some fluid by the time I took the sutures out, but nothing that seemed critical. I expressed some of it out and left a space for it to drain, then bandaged it.

To me, they seemed like they were healing fine. Med folks feel free to weigh in on that. Good place to discuss what to look for with proper wound healing, etc.

Don't know the whole story, but no sign of any undue inflammation...

Agree with Rmpl. Probably had a small amount of Staph. Body will take care of it. Watch for signs of infection. Clean and put on some topical antibiotic (neosporin or polysporin) 2-3 times a day.
