    The time of suture removal was inconsistent in different parts, 4 5 days for the head and neck, 6 7 for the lower abdomen, 7 9 for the upper abdomen and trunk, 9 11 for the limbs, and 14 days for reduction sutures.

    Pay attention to the location of the infection you said, if it is red at the position of the stitch, it may be a suture reaction, if the wound is relatively red, there may be an infection, if you can't distinguish the specific **red, but the whole piece is very red, take it is mostly a problem with the wound. Eating a little more vegetables to supplement vitamin C can help with wound healing.

    Theoretically, if the incision is infected, the suture removal time should be delayed to avoid the wound dehiscence after the suture removal, but if it is a suture reaction, the suture should be removed as soon as the incision is long. If you can't handle it yourself, go to a doctor.

    Generally 1 to 3 months, serious 3 to 6 months.

    There are four very important ligaments in the knee joint, namely the anterior cruciate ligament, the posterior cruciate ligament, the medial collateral ligament, and the lateral collateral ligament. If it is accompanied by meniscus injury, it is best to have surgery, because ligament and meniscus injury are irreversible, especially ligaments, which are elastic and lose their original function after breaking, even if they are sutured, so they must be reconstructed. Without ligaments to provide stability to the joint, the joint will move abnormally, which can damage the cartilage and meniscus, wear out the meniscus and further wear down other normal tissues in the joint.

    Moreover, this surgery is a minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, which is less invasive and has a faster recovery. However, standardized training is required after surgery to help restore the function of the lower limbs, and this link is very important, in a sense, it is as important as surgery.

    Collateral ligament injury.

    The medial collateral ligament is triangular in shape, divided into anterior and posterior strands, starting near the adductor tubercle of the medial femoral condyle and ending at the medial tibial condyle. The deep anterior femoral fibers are tightly connected to the medial meniscus. When the knee is fully straightened, the medial collateral ligament is tense and prevents the knee from valgus or tibia rotation.

    The lateral collateral ligament is bundled, starting at the lateral femoral condyle and ending at the fibular head, and when the knee is fully straightened, tension in the lateral collateral ligament and the iliotibial band together can stop the knee from varusing.

    Collateral ligament injuries, with more frequent medial collateral ligament injuries. After the injury, the knee joint has severe pain on the inside or outside of the knee, swelling, difficulty walking, and the knee joint cannot be fully straightened. There is significant tenderness, and the tender point is often in the medial and lateral condyles of the femur and tibia, and rarely in the joint space, which is one of the key points to distinguish it from meniscus injury.

    **: If the collateral ligament is partially injured, the knee joint should be placed in a slightly flexed position for immobilization to relax the collateral ligament and facilitate healing. External application of Chinese herbs to invigorate the channels and disperse stasis eliminates swelling, relieves pain and helps healing.

    If the rupture is completely broken, surgery should be performed as soon as possible to repair the ruptured ligament to avoid joint instability and affect the function of the knee joint in the future.

    It is not known which ligament you reconstructed, is it a cruciate ligament or collateral ligament or patellar ligament. Generally speaking, artificial ligaments recover quickly, like Ronaldo played four months after his first reconstructive surgery, but because the recovery period was too short, he was soon injured again. Therefore, it can only be restored for half a year to eight months, and the state will be restored after one year.

    Don't exercise too early, because it is an artificial ligament, so the ligament has a short lifespan and needs to be replaced in 6 to 10 years.
