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.
The initial dressing that is applied in the operating room is removed, on average, four days after surgery along with the surgical drains. After this time, the incision is typically left open to air without any dressing covering the wound. The incision should be kept clean and dry for a total of two weeks after surgery.
