My stitches have been in for 30 days. This is a very deep dog bite. Should I leave them in until the wound closes? (photos)

stitches in this area should be done properly, meticulously, and come out typically no later than 14-21 days.  I suggest you speak to your surgeon and take the sutures out then start your wound healing protocols.  Best, Dr. Emer.

You may want to follow up with your original surgeon to determine whether you are healing and whether you will need additional procedures to prevent abnormal functional scarring. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
