Stitches pain

Hello, I’m 10 days pp, and I’ve stopped taking painkillers 2 days back. However my stitches are quite painful. Is this normal?

I applied topical antiseptic solution to the wound using cotton pads after using the toilet every time, and my stitches recovered much faster (and very much less painful). You can buy antiseptic solution from any pharmacy (I used Eusol-Max).
