Its now day 7 post circumcision, dont know if any stiches have dissolved as i cant see any yet...can i start salth bathing 2speed recovery?

Leave it alone ...: Again, not seeing a stitch is good thing. leaving it alone but dry it soon after rinsing. Salt bathing would not speed up healing and save the money and time to do something else without obsessing on the healing after circumcision. More doubt? Ask Doc timely.
