The removal of the stitches should be done only when the patient’s wound is healing well. After the removal of the stitches, attention should be paid to whether there is any exudate from the wound, and if there is still exudate, it depends on what color the exudate is. If it is white or brown, consider that there may be subcutaneous fluid under the wound or liquefaction of the wound, which requires further debridement or dressing change, and in serious cases, removal of necrotic tissue inside the wound and regular dressing change at the hospital. If there is no exudate, it means that the healing situation is relatively good, and the stitches should not be exposed to water immediately after removal. If the wound is itchy, it means that the wound is healing, so try to avoid scratching the wound with your hands, otherwise it may cause infection.
