Early or late removal of stitches hurts

If the stitches are removed too early or too late, the pain will be painful. The pain will not be obvious if the stitches are removed too early or too late according to the normal medical advice. If the stitches are removed too early, there will be pain if the wound heals poorly, and the wound will be prone to cracking after removal; if the stitches are removed too late, the sutures will adhere to the wound and pain will occur when the sutures are withdrawn. The pain of suture removal is mainly related to the size of the wound, the suture method, the presence of inflammatory infections, etc. 1, the size of the wound: usually if the wound is small, the wound is easy to heal and has less skin lesions, and the removal of the suture is less sensitive than the larger wound; 2, the suture method: generally speaking, the pain is more obvious when removing the wound with intradermal sutures, and the pain is less when removing the wound with conventional sutures; 3, the presence of inflammation Infection: If infection occurs due to improper care during the wound recovery period, the pain will be more obvious when the stitches are removed. Therefore, in the wound recovery period need to follow the doctor’s orders, pay attention to the clean care of the wound, avoid contact with water, prevent infection, etc. Appropriate exercise can also promote wound healing, but should not be strenuous exercise to prevent wound tearing. It is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions to remove the stitches within the prescribed removal time. A certain degree of pain may occur, but it is generally tolerable, and patients do not need to be overly nervous, relax their bodies, and can also divert their attention by talking with the doctor, which can appropriately relieve the pain.
