How is the accumulation of fluid in the cesarean section uterine incision treated?

Patient's question:

Hello! I have had a cesarean section for more than 6 years. Six months ago, I had abdominal pain, and after a thorough examination, it was found that there was fluid accumulation in my uterine incision. Some medicine was prescribed for me, but it didn't work well. I would like to ask what is the best treatment method for this condition?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, there was fluid accumulation after the cesarean section surgery. You used povidone-iodine or hydrogen peroxide solution for daily sterilization, took some anti-inflammatory medications orally, such as Amoxicillin capsules, Metronidazole tablets, and Levofloxacin capsules. You also used a warm pad for cold compresses daily to promote inflammation absorption. The condition after cesarean section is very serious. It is recommended that the patient receive timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that the patient can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, have a proper diet, and avoid exacerbating the condition. The above answer is hoped to help you. Thank you.
