FTM is 9 days post c-section

I had a planned c-section due to breech baby and a bicornuate uterus. I’m about 9 days PP and I’m feeling a lot of burning/searing pain on my right side below my incision. It flares up if I’ve been too active but sometimes just shows up and it has me crippled over in pain. I asked a nurse and she said it was most likely nerve pain and that all I could do was wait for them to heal. Have any of you experienced this and if so how long did it take for you to stop feeling it? It’s starting to affect my quality of life and I just want to get back to normal. Any advice?
