Is it normal for a finger wound to swell after the stitches are removed?

Swelling of the finger after the removal of stitches, if there is no obvious pain is generally normal, but if the pain is obvious is not normal. After the finger wound is removed, there is swelling of the finger, but there is no obvious redness, elevated skin temperature, pain, after a series of examinations, such as ultrasound and so on, there is no obvious abnormality, the possibility of local edema is considered to be high, and then there is no need for special treatment. This is a normal phenomenon. If after the removal of stitches in addition to swelling is accompanied by obvious redness, pain, then consider the possibility of infection, as soon as possible to improve the ultrasound examination to clarify whether there is a local accumulation of fluid or pus, and if there is as soon as possible to drain, then the hand swelling is not normal.
