Patient's question:
Three months after a C-section, sometimes I get accidentally kicked by the baby's foot while sleeping. How can I deal with the stinging pain in the wound three months after a C-section?Doctor's answer:
If it's occasional sharp pain, it's usually not a problem. It may be related to scar formation from the incision. It is recommended to consult a general surgery department for a follow-up visit, including visual and tactile examination, and an incisional ultrasound. If there is no fluid accumulation or incisional hernia, it is normal and requires no treatment. Postpartum patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, should also maintain a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients. It is advisable to eat more fresh fruits and avoid foods with added sugar. Lemon and similar foods can be consumed in moderation.
