Getting stitches on my knees?
the doc said the stitches have to stay in for atleast ten days, also i have to save it cleen and dry. hey put some kind of tape over the stitches with spaces inbetween them they look similar to 2 equal signs stacked together, when can i take those strips of tape off?
Answers: Generally, bandage should be changed daily in order to avoid infection and to breed sure the wound is kept clean. You need to ask the doctor - call his organization for clarification. If you can't speak with the doctor, ask for after care instructions from whoever in his department can give them to you.
those tape stitches need to stay on to assist the other stitches have time to heal. after a shower dry the area next to a blow dryer on low. it will help the tape stitches stay on. It will help to fashion a better looking scar in the end.
