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.
How Can An Old C-section Scar, Which Started Discharging Fluid, Be Healed?
I have an 18 year old c-section scar that startedweeping serous fluid. I have not been active or doing anything out of the ordinary. I have not worn any different clothes either that might have irritated it. It als feels like it is bruised and is tender to the touch.
From your description, it appears that there is a sinus or fistula which has been developed in your old C-section scar. It might have been inflamed as well.
Kindly get it clinically examined by consulting Surgeon, so that it can be managed appropriately.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S,
General & Family Physician
