Know the feeling. :( All I could do, was ignore the itching as best I could. Just try to ignore it as best you can. If it gets really unbearable, apply some petroleum jelly to the area of the stitches. I know that worked for me. There's also stuff for itching at Shopper's Drug Mart too.

Naw. I don't need to see pics of the stitches. Maybe if you charges $30 or so for the privilege of being able to see said pics, you'd be able to make a bit of extra money... :P ;D

I've endured some wounds that needed stitches before but I always insist that i get the closely sticker thingies because i may tolerate needles well but i don't agree with ANYTHING puncturing my skin then coming out somewhere else . Besides don't stitches leave scars?

I've also had a liver biopsy. i'm guessing they didn't put you under, huh? they never do.... until you injure your jaw

Posting pictures of stitches is best done on a personal blog, rather than a community board. :P

Stitches are bad...

Staples are worse

I had stitches to the back of my ear once. xD

That was a fun 4 hour surgery followed by another fun 4 days of puking and extreme dizziness. ._.

back of your ear? yikes. man, the surgery must have been a big one too.

Yeh.

Some random disease that was deteriorating the bones you use to hear in my ear had to be removed.

Now I'm deaf in one ear. Awesomeness. xDD
