It's generally recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours after getting stitches before taking a shower. This allows the initial healing process to begin and helps reduce the risk of infection. However, you should keep the stitches dry during this time; using a waterproof bandage can help if you need to shower. Always follow your healthcare provider's specific instructions for your situation.
