Burning/stinging after C Section
Had a Repeat C Section Friday and as soon as the pain meds wore off I’ve been experiencing this stinging/burning pain on the sides of my incision. More the left side than the right, but the pain is so intense, it’s not allowing me to do anything. It’s like I’m being burned with a hot knife. If I’m on my feet for more than 5 minutes, i can’t hardly stand it. I’m not sure what to do. My husband is having to do ALL of the house work, plus take care of our 5 year old, newborn and myself. It’s to the point where I can’t even put on my own underwear or sit down on the toilet without his help. I have a super high pain tolerance, so this is so out of the norm for me. I didnt take any other meds home with me from the hospital. I had only ibuprofen and Tylenol at the hospital and that’s all I’m taking now. My first c section was not like this at all. I was able to still be a wife and mom, do a little bit of housework, light laundry...stuff like that. This one, I can’t do anything at all. I’m hurting like crazy!! Anyone else experience this? If so, how long did it last and how did you get rid of it?
