Injuries in our body can cause the wound. Wound may differ by location and type. Sometime wound can be managed by the medicines and sometimes suturing also included. Suturing can be included in small wound to the emergency trauma patients. If wound is not managed properly, it may causes serious infections which can lead to death of the patients.

Each and every suture needs experience for the selection of suturing material. The doctors are supposed to be expert in their undergraduate studies. Their internship training is fully dedicated to hands on training in different departments of hospitals. Doctors are learning about suturing and other techniques of medical sciences since their undergraduate studies. Internship training period is the most important period to learn and apply their knowledge because the medical interns are also known as the future doctors. After internship training the medical interns are officially eligible for their individual practices. So it must be a rigorous training in wound management and suturing because emergency and trauma patients can visit any time to the clinic.
