5 days pp and swelling ?

Question

Well ladies I'm 5 days pp and I had to have a c section I understand swelling in my legs feet and ankles are a part of it , but lately my left legs swells really bad to where it hurts to touch , or stretch my toes I limp when I walk cuz if the pain in my foot and from the surgery  some times I feel like I cant breath or have minor chest pains that come and go. Basically when will I go back to normal ?

Answer

I was the exact same, I had lots of fluid because my blood pressure kept dropping. About 8 days pp I was suddenly running to the bathroom every 10 minutes and the swelling decreased significantly

Answer

11 days pp with a c-sec. I was the same except for the chest pain. Had extreme swelling. Drink a lot of water, walk around even if it hurts and make sure you elevate your feet up when resting. Again, elevate your feet at night. My swelling in my legs and feet is much better now.

Answer

No not normal. I would def be seen- make sure you don’t have a blood clot.
