Bleeding after exercise c section?

Hi I had planned c section over 7 weeks ago now and was given all clear by doctor for exercise etc but every time I go for a walk / any kind of exercise I bleed afterwards? Did anyone else have this? It's always brown blood not fresh red (sorry tmi) unsure if it's due to the exercise or something else... also happens if I wear tight ish bottoms? Thanks

You probably need to take it easier for a bit longer. Not everyone heals at the same rate. I think the six week timetable after a c section should be more of a guideline than a definitive "right, back to normal now"
Don't push yourself. And of course, ring the GP for advice if you're concerned.
