Guest guest Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Although I am pre op, I had a terrible infection on the site of my C section scar when I had my son. If the stuff that came out was any color than clear, it probably is some kind of infection. I had a zit like thing just under my incision and it exploded like a huge zit when the doctor looked at it. I was just sickened by the whole incident. I would see a doctor. Better safe than sorry-there shouldn't be any kind of zits on the scar tissue. The end of your incision is probably the last to heal and gets stretched and pulled on. I definitely would see a doctor, to rule out infection.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 Dear L., Hmm. I don't know. I would keep a close eye on it and do just what your doing -- washing it with the Dial soap (good ol' Gold Dial!) and use your antibiotic ointment/cream twice a day. If the discharge continues or the area around the bump gets red (or you get a fever) call your doc/surgeon ASAP. Hope you feel better soon. Love, Trace in Va. Beach, VA Dr. Schechner, Va.
