For patients with minimally invasive cholecystectomy, the stitches are usually removed in 5-10 days. The specific time is related to age, nutritional status and nursing conditions.
If the patient is older, the metabolism is slower, the nutrition is good, and the wound healing is good. The stitches can be removed in 5-7 days after surgery. If the patient is older, the metabolism is slower or the nutritional status is poor, the postoperative nursing is improper, the secondary infection is slow, and the wound healing is slow, the suture removal time is relatively longer, which may be 7-10 days.
The patient needs to keep the incision clean, and moderately strengthen nutrition to promote the recovery of the disease.
