How long can the surgical incision 10cm be wetted with water depends on the patient’s wound site, recovery and other factors, and cannot be generalized. Generally postoperative incision 10cm in the case of non-healing water will affect the healing of the incision and can lead to infection of the incision, or even septicemia. In the case of wounds that need to be removed, the time for the patient to get wet is related to the time for the patient to remove the stitches. The healing time and stitching time for incisions on different parts of the body are different. Generally, facial surgical incisions can be removed in 4-5 days; for abdominal incisions, it takes 6-7 days to remove the stitches; for chest and back surgical incisions, it takes 7-9 days to remove the stitches; limb incisions usually take 10-14 days. In general, if the incision is completely healed and there is no obvious suture reaction after the stitches are removed from the above parts, you can usually get wet on the 2nd-3rd day. In the case of surgery without stitch removal, if the incision heals well after 2 weeks in general, without redness, swelling, oozing, and the incision crusts off, you can dip in water properly at this time, but do not soak in water for a long time. In addition, if the wound is cracked or fluid is accumulated under the skin after the removal of the stitches, you should continue to change the medication and not get wet to avoid serious complications caused by infection.
