Do you still need to wrap the fracture after removing the stitches?

After the fracture is removed, the wound still needs to be bandaged for about 3 days, because the eye of the needle is not yet completely healed after the removal of the wire. Therefore, the wound must be disinfected and dressed with a sterile dressing for about 3 days after the removal of the stitches, because after 3 days, the eye of the needle can generally crust over and heal. In addition, if the wound is accidentally wet within 3 days, it is recommended to clean up and disinfect in time to protect the wound from secondary wound infection. 3 days later the wound dressing can be removed on its own, but for the wound wash it is recommended that it is best to remove the line 1 week later, because then the wound is completely healed.
