What is the reason for the lump on the incision after a cesarean section?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, after a year of Caesarean section, there's a lump about the size of a corn kernel on my right scar, which has started to hurt. It's been hurting ever since, and it's been about a year and a half now. Now, every time I have my period, it hurts. The wound looks a bit swollen. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description of symptoms, this is generally associated with pain caused by surgical incisions. It is recommended that you come to the hospital for a face-to-face follow-up examination to rule out endometriosis of the uterine lining as the cause of this pain. For severe cesarean section patients, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not switch medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
