Hello and welcome,
It is not uncommon to have wound infections in c section
incisions. However, green color discharge indicates most likely a
pseudomonas infection.
In our setup, I generally order a wound swab tested for infection if a patient has any discharge. So please get it tested if possible. Also, I am not sure if you are being given any antibiotics to help cover the infection. A blood sugar test is also advisable as high blood sugars prevent healing.
So please discuss this with your doctor and get the tests done if possible.
In addition we advise eating a balanced diet as well as taking a lot of
vitamin C and
proteins as they promote healing of wound.
Please do not worry, as packing helps in healing of wound.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Feel free to ask any more questions that you may have.
