The wound is usually not significantly painful when the stitches are removed, and the use of anesthetics is generally not recommended. Individuals with a low pain threshold may apply a topical anesthetic when it may be difficult to tolerate. When removing stitches, the wound has basically healed well, and the removal of stitches is simply a slow extraction after cutting the stitches, which may be accompanied by pain during the process, but it is generally not serious and can be tolerated. Doctors can avoid pain by being slow and gentle during the operation, and you can inform the doctor before removing the stitches. As can be seen from the above, in clinical work, the removal of stitches generally do not need to use anesthetics, but if the patient is difficult to tolerate the pain, with this claim, you can also apply a small amount of anesthetics, often used anesthetics are lidocaine gel and so on. The use of anesthetics may produce toxic reactions and allergic reactions, people with a history of allergy is prohibited, the drug should be applied under the guidance of a doctor.
