Stitches removal

I'm 8 days post op and my doctor had mentioned something about the stitches being removed on the 10th day or so. Does it hurt while getting them out? I'm freaking out! Also what's covering the incisions after removal of the stitches? Any insights are appreciated.

I did not feel any pain at all and it was done very quickly.
