Most dissolvable stitches start to break down within one to two weeks. However, it could take several months before your stitches disappear completely. After the wound has healed, it may be possible for a nurse to remove the loose ends of the dissolvable stitches, to speed up the process. Ask your surgeon or the health professional treating you if they can tell you: 1  what kind of stitches youâve been given. 2  how long they will take to dissolve.
As soon as the wound can be. closed the tendons should be repaired. Therefore, if the wound is clean at day 3 or 4, the. tendons should be repaired and the wound closed at that time. If the wound has been initially closed, tendon repair may be carried out up to 2. weeks after injury. If later than 2 weeks, repair will be difficult because of muscle. contraction and tendon softening. Secondary repair later than 2 weeks post injury is not. recommended.
