How to remove scabs and stitches when they are stuck together?

Wound scabs and sutures stick together, you can remove the sutures by prolonged infiltration of the sutures, pulling the edges of the silk threads and other ways. 1. Prolonged infiltration of the suture; you can use a cotton swab or gauze dipped in povidone-iodine to infiltrate the area of the suture, through prolonged infiltration, the local scab can be softened, and then the suture can be separated, so as to carry out the operation of suture removal. 2. Pulling the edge of the suture: you can use tweezers to pull the edge of the suture with appropriate strength, so that the edge of the suture is slowly separated out, and then remove the suture after it is separated out. It is important to note that before removing the sutures, it is important to assess whether the wound has healed and whether suture removal can be performed. If there is adhesion between the scab and the suture, the wound has not fully healed and the suture should be removed carefully. Removal of sutures should always be done by a professional and in accordance with the concept of asepsis.
