A member asked:
How long it will take internal stitches to cure after a left ovarian removed surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends...: On what type of suture material was used and the thickness of the suture. Without knowing the answer to both of those, it's difficult to tell exactly. They may have even used non-absorbable sutures.
