How to treat wound pain after a cesarean section

Patient's question:

I had a C-section six months ago, but the wound inside is very hard and painful, and I dare not touch it. I also dare not touch the incision. The incision has slowly formed a red, protruding scar.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if it is abdominal wall pain with a hard lump, it may be due to granulation tissue hyperplasia or keloid hyperplasia. If it is abdominal pain affecting eating, it may be due to intestinal adhesion.
Suggestions: You can consult a local doctor for a physical examination, undergo an abdominal X-ray or ultrasound examination. Currently, local heat application is recommended, along with taking pain relievers and digestive aids for symptomatic treatment. Oral traditional Chinese medicine may be used if necessary. In terms of diet, easily digestible foods should be consumed, and appropriate exercise should be done.
