8 weeks post c-section laparotomy, my gf is still in (surgical/familiar) extreme pain. her doc opened a new practice, can't see her for a week. er?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Call her MD: She needs to call her MD who did the C/S as he/she should be available or an on call MD for emergencies rather than walking into the ER. If they are not available at all only then should she go to the ER if she is in extreme pain, but call first.
