    Got these removed from my abdomen. Was a bit nervous but it went pretty well, I hardly felt anything. So for those who are gonna get theirs removed, it's not gonna hurt. And if at all you do feel uncomfortable, there is always local anesthesia to get you through.

    I have 23 staples in my right breast from where I just had to have a breast tissue expander removed due to cellulitis and infection of the expander. Diagnosed with breast cancer twice since 2022, so I've been going through reconstruction. But as soon as I seen that they put staples in for the very first time (I've gone through so many procedures just on my right breast) I started freaking out because I've never dealt with staples. I've been freaking out about how they remove them, don't know when they will remove them as I just had this recent procedure on July 10th. But I've been worried about how they do it, how painful it is, and so on. Seeing a lot of these comments and watching some of these videos have really helped to ease my mind on that. So thank you all so much because I've been scared about it since I seen the staples. That fear is now mostly diminished.

    I can't believe that there are people here in the comment section who had a painless experience when having their surgical staples removed. I envy you guys so much. My doctor removed 4 staples after my caesarian procedure and it was the most PAINFUL experience I ever had in my life. And this comment is coming from someone who experienced patella dislocation at least 5 times already where the doctor had to drain blood from my knee with a four-inch needle without anesthesia.

Some of them will sting like crazy, the others come out pretty painlessly. If there is a scab, do not pick at it (if you have dermatillomania, this is going to be torturous). It will erode with time. Leave it alone for another 2 weeks, and then go back to normal, it should be safe to wash. Good luck, I’m wishing you the best
