Hello,
Such symptoms are expected for a few days following the C section. But if the symptoms persist, worsen or you develop other issues like fever, foul-smelling discharge then follow up with ObGyn to rule out infection.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
