How will i know if my incision is healed? i had a c-section a month ago.

Skin closed/no pain: If your skin incision is healed, smooth and flat and the pain is resolved or nearly so, your wound has probably healed normally. It would be prudent to avod heavy lifting for another several weeks to minimize the risk of a hernia.
