To clean dissolvable stitches, gently wash the area with mild soap and water during your regular bathing routine. Avoid scrubbing the stitches; instead, pat the area dry with a clean towel. Keep the stitches dry and avoid applying any ointments or creams unless directed by your healthcare provider. Monitor for any signs of infection, such as increased redness or swelling, and contact a doctor if necessary.
