C-section scar partially opened
Posted: 08-28-08 10:41am

About two days after my doc took my staples out of my c-section incision, it opened up on one side. A bunch of fluid drained out and I went back to the doctor and they packed it. I ended up packing the wound for 3 months. The doctors have been very vague about why this would happen. I was also VERY swollen after I came home. I lost about 24 lbs within a week once the fluid went away. Is it possible that the incision burst because of all the fluid in my body? What would cause this? I've never heard of this happening to anyone before.
