Can polyfax plus heal a dissolveable stitch hole in my skin after 12 days of baby delivery? i feel pain cause of swelling and cant sit without pain.

Examination: Before using an over the counter ointment you should have the area examined by a doctor to determine what is wrong and what can be done to fix the problem. "A dissolvable stitch hole” is not a likely cause. An Obgyn should examine you and then guide you through the treatment options.
