10 weeks pp - warning photo

[Smileymum123]

I'm 10 weeks pp and since yesterday on my left side of scar where the scabs are is now stinging. my scar seems red to me as well. I also have stinging above my c section scar on the left side inside and pulling feeling in my hip. Has anyone else experienced this?

I don't know if the stinging is because I've done too much or an infection?

I had a uterine rupture plus this was an emergency and my second c section.

Thank you x

It looks shiny. Is it wet, do you have cream on or is there fluid leaking from the scar?
It doesn’t scream infection to me, but it’s a pic of a tiny portion of scar.
If there is spreading redness or weeping/oozing from the wound or you get a temperature/feel unwell in yourself I’d see a HCP asap but, if it’s just red from where scabs have come off, it’s fine.

It looks like it's healing well to me but I'm not medically trained. Scars are generally red to begin with and then they gradually fade.

If it doesn't feel right though or you are at all concerned ask your GP or a midwife to check it.
