Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, my c section scar doesn t look right after nearly four months. It still has holes and the colour doesn t seem right. I have a long history of cellulitis and I went to the GP two months ago and they said no infection but prescribed antibiotics in case. I have also had a course for an unrelated dental issue since then. Should I keep going to my GP or is there a specialist I can ask to be referred to? I can t shift the baby weight and I feel it s because I m scared to exercise because of the incision.
Hi, your scar will take about 1 year to get back to normal. It is a normal thing. So don't worry. Regarding the weight loss, you can do some yoga and brisk walking. Exercise can be done after 1 year. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any other query I will be happy to help. Regards Dr khushboo
