Why is the stomach so tender and numb after csection? 14 days pp

It is healing: The healing process is not an overnight "sensation", rather a proliferation of complex events involving white blood cells, and collagen building proteins. A C/section scar needs time to complete the process over several weeks, in addition to regeneration of the abdominal surface nerves that were cut at that time. Don't forget to go back to your OB MD at the 4 to 6 week post partum check up.

Healing process: The nerves, blood vessels and tissue regrow after a cesarean section and that can cause tingling, burning, pain. They usually improve 4 weeks after surgery Wish you a speedy recovery Dr M
