Is Burning Sensation In Right Abdomen Post C Section Suggestive Of Reopened Stitches?
Hello, I had a c section 6 weeks ago and have been going on 2 mile walks every other day for the last week. I have started having right side abdominal pain internally- the external incision feels fine. In the mornings the skin is tender but by the end of the day it feeling like a burning/stabbing pain. I ve not went on a walk in 3 days but it is still bothering me. Could I have reopened my stitches? What are the signs or symptoms I should be looking for?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, as long as the pain and burning sensation is concern at the site of wound it is advisable to see the surgeon because clinical examination will tell every thing, it may not be due to wound or it may be hope this information helps.
