A member asked:
My c-section incision has the tendency to open and is still sensitive. its been more than a year since any surgerys is there anything i can do?

Not normal: Your c-section scar should not be opening after a year. See your surgeon and ask questions. It sounds like you need a new plan. You might seek a second opinion. You may have incomplete healing deeper in the incision which could require excision and re closure.
