See a doctor: Severe abdominal pain should be checked by a doctor immediately. Possible causes are ectopic pregnancy, appendicitis, bowel obstruction, or many other serious causes. If all these are ruled out by a doctor then it could be pain from adhesions which is scar tissue from the C-section. Go to an ER or your doctor asap!
