How to Use Suture Needle in Project Zomboid

Although a Suture Needle can be found in medicine cabinets and first aid kits, it is considered a rare item in Project Zomboid, based on the experience of many survivors.

However, it comes with a good trade-off, as it offers a benefit that may surprise you.

In Project Zomboid, the Suture Needle can be used to stitch your open wound and prevent it from bleeding again.

Assuming you have a deep wound and already have the Suture Needle in your inventory, you can press “H” or click on the heart icon on the left side of your screen to open the Health window.

Next, right-click on the wound and select “Stitch” => “Suture Needle” to cover it.

Using the Suture Needle to treat the open wound is pain-free and requires no Thread, unlike the Needle.

But keep in mind that the Suture Needle is consumed after each stitch and can only be applied to deep wounds.


That’s how to use the Suture Needle in Project Zomboid.
