Would acquiring / learning how to use a suture kit a worthwhile endeavor?
I learned how to use one. Having a skill is having a skill (plus there was some bad influence from the movie "First Blood"). It might not be worth the effort for you:
- Suturing is a perishable skill
- A suturing kit has only a limited shelf life, instruments may not stay sterile as long as the sutures
- On some partsof the body you can do additional damage
- If the wound is contaminated, you must not suture
- If there some swelling, you should not suture
- If you do not have anesthetics, suturing might involve a bit of pain
- In most cases less invasive gear is adequate
