A member asked:
Is it normal for a c-section incision to open after 2months p.p? i was glued closed instead of stitches and staples
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No normal: It is not normal for the wound to open after 2 months. However, it is not unheard of. Get in to have the wound evaluated to make sure there is not something else going on. Do not worry, your wound can still heal well. You will need to get in and learn how to care for your wound. Blessings!
