How soon can i light weights if i have a few stitches on my gums ?

When you want to: Stitches on the gums are not a contraindication to lifting weights, if you are otherwise up to doing the exercise. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.

See below: Speak to the dentist that performed the procedure, there should be no bearing if you feel ok.

Sutures: For most patients and most procedures, you can resume normal activity the next day. Lifting weights can increase your blood pressure which might produce some minimal bleeding. It is always best to act the doctor that actually treated you.

Immediately: Start a bit light and take a few sessions to build up to your usual weights and number of reps.
