Guys can I have your advice I have a GP appointment tomorrow morning but I’m 12 days post c section and this is my second section and current incision…

it’s super itchy and has a sour smell underneath I’m washing with Luke warm water in the shower every night and patting it dry.. but does this look infected? I can’t see any blood or discharge but there was dead white skin coming away and I’ve noticed little holes?😅 I have no temp and there is no redness other than the bruising around it..

C section incision?

Can’t see any pic if there was supposed to be one attached. But from the smell etc you mentioned it could be infected. But if you are going to the GP tomorrow is it for that, or will you then ask to have it checked do you mean, whilst you are there.

It’s under review I think…

it’s for this reason really it’s itchy and feels really numb I’m having electric type of shocks up the sides and the smell is like if there is sweat under the fold that’s too hot and moisture like but I’m worried there is an infection

Well the numbness I would expect a bit as I had that, itchy etc too as it’s in such an awkward place.
Well can’t you ask when you go to your appointment.
