# Suture placement and removal at home

> Medical Home Gdl places and removes sutures at your address in Guadalajara. A doctor cleans the wound, assesses whether stitches are needed, places them using sterile technique and schedules removal for the right date. Available 24 hours a day.

A wound that needs stitches does not wait in line. A doctor comes to you, cleans it, assesses whether suturing is needed and does it on the spot.

If you already have stitches from somewhere else and only need them removed, we do that too. Removing them on the right date is the difference between a discreet scar and a marked one.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does getting stitches hurt?

A local anaesthetic is applied first. You feel the anaesthetic stick, then the area goes numb.

### When do stitches come out?

Between 5 and 14 days depending on the body area. The doctor gives you the exact date and we schedule the removal.

### Can you remove stitches placed elsewhere?

Yes. We come to you, assess the healing and remove the stitches.

### When do I actually need a hospital?

If the wound is very deep, bleeding will not stop, or there is tendon or nerve damage. The doctor tells you clearly during the assessment.
