A member asked:
Had a c-sec 7months ago and noticed my scar is itching a lot is there a reason why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal healing: As time goes by, your body re-models the scar. Part of this remodeling process involves pulling the scar fibers tighter. This causes itching and is a normal part of healing. Best wishes!
