Could Pricking Sensation In My Abdomen Mean That Internal Stitches Of C Section Have Reopened?

I had a c section 3.5 months back. Just yesterday , in my right abdomen I started to have a pricking sensation followed by dull pain when I moved around or did some tasks like sitting down, getting up etc. Could this mean that internal stitches have reopened?

DEAR USER,
THANKS FOR CONSULTING WITH HCM

I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN

PRICKING SENSATION CAN OCCUR POST SURGICAL PROCEDURE DUE TO SKIN DRYING OR HEALING PROCESS THAT IS TAKING PLACE

HOWEVER PRICKING DOES NOT INDICATE ANY THING RELATED TO INTERNAL STICHES

YOU REALLY DONT HAVE TO WORRY I M PRETTY SURE THAT YOUR OBSTETRICIAN HAS VERY WELL DONE THE SURGERY AND U CAN RELY ON HIM

HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
