Pain In The Incision Site Of Abdominal Surgery After Healing. Could It Be Hernia?
I am a 22 year old female who has had two c-sections and mutiples admonial surgies for abcess and blood clots that were in my admonial, they had just went through my c-section due to the fact that it was already open. It has been healed for years. However this last two days it has been painfully to sit, I am in constant pain were my scar is. Is it possible I may have a hernia there from moving my house around the other day?

Hi
In hernia occuring from the previous surgical scar,there should be bulge or swelling visible.
It may due to adhesions of the bowel inside the abdomen to the scar.
If you have doubt,Get an Ultrasound abdomen which confirms hernia.
If you come back with ultrasound report,i will clarify further
Wish you good health
