A member asked:
What could cause for a c-section not to heal (the skin not attaching) after 6 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very abnormal: It is hard to answer this question without specifically looking at the wound in question. After 6 months, the area should be completely closed. You need to consult with a plastic surgeon if there is still an open wound.
