i had surgery on my leg 1 week ago and had my stitches taken out today..the incision is about 4 inches long right above my ankle..well later on today about 1/2 inch of the incision opened up..of course im going to call my doc tommorrow but do u think the opened part will be ok or will i probably require stitches to close it back up??

Uh, super. I don't think anyone can answer this accurately without seeing the wound. That is NOT an invitation to post a pic of it so please spare us. Just go to the doc tomorrow and you should be fine I would expect unless you get gangreen and die of course or something like that, in which case I guess you won't be alright. Sucks to be you.
Sorry, I can't help myself sometimes. I think you'll be fine. Just relax and get a good nights rest and try not to cause the wound to open any more.

You're going to have a really nice scar...

I hear lime juice helps speed up the healing process.

If blood isnt shooting out of it I would just leave it be, that way you have a bitchin scar to show off at the next frat party.

Sounds like they'll probably throw a few more stitches in it to close it back up.
