Yep, take a little extra time. Mine got infected about a week after the initial surgery. Several followup in office procedures (least fun thing I have ever done), then it herniated a few weeks later. Not much fun, and I was out of exercise for two months. If it feels good, give it a little extra time just in case. I would wait till the stitches get taken out or dissolve and work themselves out, depending on which type you have. An extra week or so off sucks, but it sucks a lot less than an incision that gets infected from sweating on the bike. Because then it has to get cut open again. And cleaned out with those really long dental swabs. For an hour and a half.
