do stitches need to be bandaged
 

So I fell off the wagon last night and cut needing stitches but the bandage they put on is already falling off, do they need to be covered or are they alright without being covered? sorry if this is a stupid question.

As long as you are not doing anything which would expose them to infection (eg cleaning out animals, gardening etc) then they should be ok without a bandage. But remember to keep them clean and dry.

Thanks for that Kristyx
