Is A Stomach Infection After A C-section A Cause For Concern?

I had a csection May 27th. Ended up back in the hospital last week with an infection in my stomach due to surgery. I have been on antibiotics for almost 2 weeks now and im getting a foul smelling odor from incision site. Painful pulling sensation and hot to the touch. Should i be concerned?

Hello,

It can be infected wound on incision site if it is painful, smelly and hot in touch, o kindly consult a surgeon personally for physical evaluation of the wound.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
