C section scar numbness and exercises
I had my c section 2 months back and i can still feel numbess in my lower abdomen , a hard lump on the edge of scar on right side as well, how much time will it take for the numbness to go and will the hard scar go away?
I sometimes feel stretching because of stitch when i turn on my side
I also started with standing abs exercises, i don't have any problem in doing that and can I continue that ??

It's normal to feel little pain at the scar site. Hard lump at the edges that u are feeling is the knots of the thread used for internal stiches. It will take time to heal completely. It's the part of healing process of the cesarean section wound. Remodeling of the wound can continue till 6 months to 1 year. For numbness u can connect online for prescription
