2nd csection 10 weeks ago where had placenta previa & had to cut through after doing abdominal exercises today my scar started burning on right side. ?

Probably no problem : The abdominal muscles may burn with exercise for a while after surgery. If not too uncomfortable you may continue to exercise. I tell patients they may begin abdominal exercises 6 to 8 weeks after a cesarean section. If you have redness, drainage, or bulging at the incision site call your obstetrician.

Probable nerve regen: Thisnis probably due to resolving nerve injuries which are normal during any c-section due to transaction of minor cutaneous nerves. However it could be a sign of a hernia and should be evaluated by your surgeon.
