WHEN SHOULD DOCTORS REMOVE STITCHES Surgical sutures or stitches are usually removed 7-14 days after surgery. Removal of stitches should be done ONLY by a physician or physician assistant after examination and under sterile comditions in order to avoid complications including opening of the wound, infections, and even life threatening conditions.
Change the bandage as your doctor tells you to. Your doctor will remove your stitches or staples 10 to 21 days after your surgery. You may still have some mild pain, and the area may be swollen for 3 to 6 months after surgery. Your knee will continue to improve for 6 to 12 months. You will probably use a walker for 1 to 3 weeks and then use crutches.
