4 months post op???

Hey all! I’m 4 months (14 weeks to be exact) post op and I just out of curiosity wanted to feel my cuff area for the first time since surgery because I was too scared for the first 9 weeks and I STILL have stitches in there. Is this normal, or should I make an appt to see my ob? I feel like they should’ve dissolved my now, no?

Anybody else have experience with this??
