Generally, it is recommended to go back to work about 4 to 14 days after the stitches. But the time varies depending on the part of the body that is sutured. For people with head and face wound suture, it usually takes 4~5 days to remove the suture; while the suture parts are lower abdomen and perineum, the suture can be removed 6~7 days after suture; for the suture of upper abdomen, chest, back and buttocks, the suture can be removed after 7~9 days; for limbs, the suture needs to be removed after 10~12 days, and the joint parts need to be removed after 14 days. Usually you can go to work after the stitches are removed. However, some people’s jobs do not require physical activities, so going to work may not be affected by whether the stitches are removed or not. In some cases, after the stitches have been removed, the inside of the operated area has not fully recovered, so the time to go to work needs to be postponed. However, for those who are not in good physical condition, they still need to rest for a longer period of time before going to work. After suture patients should pay attention to keep the affected area clean and dry, pay attention to rest, do not overwork, but also pay attention to a light diet, in order to facilitate the recovery of the condition and wound healing.
