Hi all

I didn't know where to post this but I needed some advice. I was recently rushed into hospital where they found and successfully removed an 8cm abscess on my left ovary but because they were unsure which side the "mass" was I was given a c section incision. I was given no aftercare in regards to the cleaning and removing of stitches and I'm getting a little anxious. I should note I'm staying with my partner and my local GP is 30 miles away and I was sent to a hospital I'd never been to.

The nurse in the hospital said it was glued shut but I had to point out the black stitching when she was changing the dressings which just ruined all confidence I had in them.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thank you all x
