Is there any discharge or swelling at stitch site? Is there any bulge on sneezing, coughing which reduces on lying down? It can be a case of surgical site infection or Incisional hernia but final diagnosis can be confirmed after clinical examination and investigation (if required) only.
Next Steps
Kindly consult your operating surgeon (gynecologist) for better evaluation and opinion.
Health Tips
Use Abdominal Binder Do local warm compression at stitch site Avoid strenous activity
