Bleeding From Openings At Incision Site Post C-section. Is There Any Home Treatment?

I am 4 mo post c section. I have 2 small (2mm ea) openings at my incision site. They had previously been closed ( though had taken about 8 wks to close at the same spots) No pain, no redness, no puss and no temp - just bleeding since last night. Is it necessary to be seen by doctor to close these spots. Is there some home treatment I can do. Presently using recoveron -n with gauze over site.

Hello
Thanks for your query.
It does not sound as if there is any major complication with the scar site.
if there is no pain / redness, and no discharge, then do not worry.
One possibility is scar site endometriosis, particularly as they bled.
Yes, you definitely need to see a doctor to ensure that nothing needs to be done.
Take care.
