Harnia operation and prec
Greetings everyone, my father went with Hernia operation on 23rd Dec'17 and now its been 17 days the stitches have not been removed because hospital says that stitches yet not healed and need another 4 days to recover completely. But they have removed half stitches which were okay to remove. Not sure if everything going good or not. Please guide what to do and also what to do after stitches are removed . Do my father needs to rest a lot after removing stitches or he can stroll out and walk with no risk.

Some part of the cut must have not fused so that might be the reason the doctors must have kept the stitches. After stitches get removed the patient is advised not to do any strenuous work .
