Postpartum two months, incision pain, sometimes itchy, what's going on

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Could you please explain why my incision hurts two months after a C-section and sometimes itches?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is normal for the incision area to feel a bit itchy one month after a cesarean section. If there are no signs of redness, swelling, or pain in your incision area, everything is generally fine. Since you are one month postpartum, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound examination and have the doctor check your incision area again. This will give you peace of mind. Scar hyperplasia does require surgical treatment.
