C section area pain and itching
Hello Doctor,
My wife had a C section and its 24 days now. Her stitches has healed but she complains of internal pain and itching near lower abdominal area ( C section operated area). Due to which her movements are restricted and she is unable to do her usual day to day activities. I spoke to my sergon and he has nothing to say about it. Can you please suggest what could be the cause of this internal/external pain and itching? She has no sedentary health issues.

It’s a recent surgery and the skin stitches must be healing now.some pain is expected and itching might be due to the drying and healing of the stitch line.dont worry.keep the area clean and dry but apply but of coconut oil to help not to crack.
