Hi to all,



After a surgery I have some metal stitches to be removed from my leg.

I had the surgery in Istanbul, and dont know any place to have them removed in TRNC



Any experience and recommendations?

You'll have to ask 'nurse awful', Chris. She will sort you out! (Hope You're Scottish!)!

They are called clips or staples and are very common.I am sure any hospital here will be able to remove them. Go to the public hospital as it will be cheaper. If not go to the private hospital near HSBC or the one near the Pia Bella Hotel. Any nurse will be able to remove them.They are actually easier to remove than ordinary ones.They look like staples and they are removed by a little "staple remover"I've removed lots when I was a nurse in uk.

I agree with message 3 roisin, I use to be a Nurse myself in the Uk and have also removed hundreds, they are easy to remove.

Mertbalin,



As you live in Lefkosa it would probably be best for you to pop into the state hospital where they can remove them in minutes.



In my experience always better to remove every second staple first to ensure that the wound has healed properly.
