Feeding peg stitches

Had a feeding tube put in my stomach last thursdaY week, the district nurse came today to take out the stitches, cut one and then was supposed to gently pull the stitch out, but couldn't. She pulled alot, which was a bit painful, but just couldn't get it out. I've now got to go to our local A and E on monday morning to see what they can do.
Has this happened to anyone else or is it just unlucky me. The peg is quite painful, it got better initially after it was put in, but in the last few days it feels abit bruised inside, and it hurts so much to cough.
I'd really appreciate anybodys comments on this, thanks alot
