When Does a Wound Require Stitches?
Stitches, or surgical sutures, may be an appropriate treatment for patients with cuts or lacerations that:
- Are especially deep or wide
- Gape open
- Contain dirt or debris
- Have ragged edges
Stitches are used to close the wound, prevent infection, and promote proper healing. Halifax Health ExpressCare is pleased to offer stitches and other types of wound care to patients every day on a walk-in basis.
It’s important to note that some wounds require emergency care in a hospital setting. Be sure to call 911 or go to the nearest ER if a wound causes uncontrollable bleeding, trouble breathing, or loss of consciousness.
