A member asked:
7 weeks after c-section developed oozing from stiches, rash and swelling from belly button down to tighs. rash is now all over my body? what can it be

Postop infection: I would be concerned for a post op infection - as 7 weeks after surgery - there should not be drainage / oozing from the incision. Redness is also a sign of infection. See your doctor to be sure.
