Absorbable sutures (stiches) rapidly break down in the tissues and lose their strength within 60 days; thus, they don't have to be removed. In general, these are used internally or in special areas such as the inside of the mouth. Nonabsorbablesutures maintain their strength for longer than 60 days. These sutures are used to close skin or external wounds and require removal once the wound has healed. The medical doctor treating a given wound generally determine the type of suture that is requied.
