Hi , I had c section 2.5 months back. 4 days back small hole was there on stiched area and found blood discharge. My doc asked me to use antiseptic powder to close that heal. Again today i found one more small hole beside the old hole with blood discharge. My doc said same to use powder for nxt 2 days. I am very much worried. Please let me know will it heal by powder?

Until it's a clear discharge and the wound is not totally opening, you can do aspect dressing of the wound. If pain, ous discharge and gapping of wound increases, you need to go to hospital.

Hello, I understand your concern. Have to see a picture of the area to assess further. Is it a suture site? How big is the hole? Need answers to these questions, to advise you further.
