Hi everyone,
I am nearly 4 weeks into my C section recovery and I'm generally feeling much better, but there is still a pain on my left side around the incision. It is hard to describe but when I move it feels like it pulls and is almost a sharp pain that can cause me to cry out sometimes. I still struggle with getting out of bed/standing up etc. It doesn’t really hurt when I'm not moving unless I’ve just pulled it.
It's always been there and I did mention it at my last check and they said it was fine, but that was at 1 week postpartum and I'm now worried it's not getting any better whilst the rest is healing well. The skin is slightly raised, but it’s been like this since the beginning and it isn’t red and doesn’t look like swelling.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar? I’m getting nervous it might be something more permanent and upset that I’m still so restricted in my movements :( Thank you!
