How To Stitch or Sutures with Thread.

[Mataracy]

To find out if a cut needs stitches, see if the edges if the skin come together by themselves. If they do, usually no stitches are needed.

How to Stitch a wound:

• Boil a sewing needle and a thin thread ( nylon or silk is best) for 19 minutes.
• Wash the wound with boiled water and soap, as I have said before.
• wash your hands very well with boiled water and soap.

Make the first stitch in the middle of the cut, and tie it closed.
Make enough other stitches to close the whole cut.
Leave the stitches in place for 4 to 9 days ( on the face 4 days ; the hand or scalp 6 days; the leg or foot 9 days). Then remove the stitches: cut the thread on one side of the knot and pull the knot until the thread comes out.

WARNING: Only close wounds that are very clan and less than 12 hours old.
Old, dirty, or. Infected wounds must be left open. Bites from people ,, dogs, pigs,, or other an8mald should also be left open. Closing these can cause dangerous infections.

If the wound that has been closed shoes any signs of infection, remove the stitches immediately and leave the wound open.

This skill is what I'm not willing to learn even if paid to. I can't imagine myself using needle on a living body. I will feel the pain the most.

Thank you for sharing , this might help some people but I can bet that 90% of people who are reading this post may not like to practice this on themselves because it won't really be a funny experience for people to stitch themselves with a needle..

And personally I won't be able to do it on others because I am not a professional on this area.. my only suggestion is that whenever there is a wound people should rather take it to the hospital to get and receive proper treatment most especially if it is from dog bite or any other dangerous animal .. Do not let it be because it can really be dangerous if untreated..

I don't really know how suturing of wound are done and also how the trade will be remove , all these things are being carried out by expert who specializes in them and they are able to do it perfectly...

Sometimes if this is not done properly by inexperienced people it might lead to infection and other complications that is why I won't really advise people to engage in this..

The best solution is always to get proper treatment from expert who specialised on what you are suffering from.
