How long does it take for a wound to heal?

How long would it take to heal long gash on the back from knife wound? With stitches? After they're removed?

  • I'm writing a book and need to know in detail what the wound care and healing process would be like both with stitches and after they are removed. Any advice would be great!

  • Answer:

    length is not as important as depth. sutures remain in place 10 to 14 days, after which the wound should be healed
