What is the situation with the bumps at the cesarean section wound?

Patient's question:

I've had a C-section for 67 days, and there's a lump on my incision. I don't know what it is inside—it looks like hair but also like white acne. It hurts when I touch it. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the main consideration is that the subcutaneous non-fermented thread has not been fermented, showing the symptoms of local infection and causing pain. It is best to avoid eating stimulating foods and can use povidone-iodine for local sterilization, apply erythromycin ointment, and take Transfer Factor Oral Liquid together to implement antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment. If necessary, go to the hospital to remove the non-fermented thread knot.
The patient is facing the risks of cesarean section, and we should promptly implement the principle of symptomatic treatment. Do not avoid seeking medical attention. If the cesarean section condition does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
