Hello Dr. Chetna. I wanted to know about c-section delivery stitches. i got my c-section delivery done on last August 2009. but my stitches are like swollen. it is not paining for me, but still i feel uncomfortable. i asked many of my friends, they said for few people it will like this only and it is because of less creation of healing harmones during that time. let me know your suggestion.

Hi,
After so many years of C section question of healing of sutures are not there at all.
The problem you are having might be due to formation of some adhesion at operating site producing stretching type of pain.
There is likely of having painful irregular incision scar.
Consult Gynaec and get examined.
Ok and take care.
