Do dissolving stitches have a weird taste when they are dissolving?

Question: I got my wisdom teeth out recently and they put in those dissolving stitches. I keep getting this weird taste in my mouth, it's a chemical-ish taste and it's back immediatly even after I brush my teeth. The only thing I could think was that maybe it was the stitches. Does anyone know from experience or whatever if they give off a weird taste when they dissolve?

Answers:
You could still be bleeding a little bit and what you're tasting is blood. I had my wisdom teeth cut out and I bled for about 3 days. when I began brushing again I was careful not to run the toothbrush over the sore areas.

Other Answers:
Yeah I did, it was pretty nasty.

No i never tasted mine. Maybe you should asked your doctor.
Your mouth could still be bleeding and that is what you are tasting. Hope it goes away real soon though.
