There is one tiny suture thread sticking out on the "rear end" of the subcoronal incision on the right side of my glans, but I think it's the only straggler left.
Good to know. Are you circumcised, Duke?
I also got a sub-coronal incision, but I'm uncircumcised.
Yes, I am circumcised. Are you experiencing any issues with blood buildup and what-not within your foreskin? Hoping you're having an easy go of it.
Glad that you are circumcised. I'm experiencing distal foreskin edema on the skin folds below the glans, and I have a feeling that the sub-coronal incision is a bad choice for uncircumcised patients like me. This thought came about today after I read this on Rigicon's website. I wish I didn't have this biological shock absorber boot below my glans!

Uncircumcised patients may have an increased risk of postoperative complications with the sub-coronal approach. Surgeons may wish to discuss performing a circumcision to reduce the risk of post-operative complications associated with this approach.
