Would you swim - gross TMI pic included

I have a swimming lesson this evening. The skin around my (old) csection scar is really sore - pic attacked.

Anyone know - does this look infected/should I swim with this...?

Yes.

But see the practice nurse tomorrow - might need some ointment (thrush? Bacterial?)

BathshebaKnickerStickers · 18/12/2018 19:12

Try sudocrem, is it smelly?

Nope, not smelly. I’ve been keeping it dry all day
