Keep the wound clean, refrain from picking at the stitches, and keep using the recommended amount of Soframycin lotion to reduce scarring. For stitch care and prompt removal, keep the region out of the sun and pay strict attention to your doctor's recommendations.

Wound Care and Hygiene
- Keep the stitched area clean and dry. Use mild soap and water to gently clean around the stitches.
- Continue using Ciplox, Metrogyl, Zinase-D, and Soframycin cream as prescribed.
Managing Discomfort

- Seek medical attention if discomfort worsens or if you notice signs of infection.
Scar Prevention Strategies
- Avoid sun exposure; use sunscreen once the wound heals.
- Consider silicone gels or sheets post-suture removal to minimize scarring.
Follow-up and Monitoring
- Attend follow-up visits for suture removal and wound assessment.
- Watch for signs of infection like increased redness, swelling, or pus.
Lifestyle and Nutritional Tips
- Maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins C and E to support healing.
When to Consult a Specialist
- Consult a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for scar management if needed.
