Is it wise to suppress anger? I think it is not a good idea be it physically or mentally. Bottling everything up will really might prevent you from exploding right at the scene of anger but if we just bottle it up for every case, one's senses will go numb and end up not being able to express oneself when required to.

To me, suppressing anger is like swallowing fire as you suppress, the amount of fire within you grows and before you even realize how crazy things are, you probably already created a forest fire. And this fire that is swallowed actually hurts the internal organs and will prove to be an issue over time.

While suppressing is bad, over expression is bad as well. So always find avenues to channel your anger away, do not let it linger within you. Go for a walk or sweat it out are good methods of pressure relief and also do remember to mentally release through sharing out with friends and loved ones.
