Dear thanks for the question.

It is a cause of concerns as it may be due to incomplete healing of C Section scar or tearing of it.

If i were your treating doctor I would have advised you more rest immediately after C Section, as 4 days are not enough. You should have been on absolute rest for 15 days.

Now I would like to advise you to visit a doctor immediately. You need to under go ultrasound scan to examine the uterus and scar in detail. Ultrasound will help in identifying source of bleeding.

Other possibility is infection but it presents with fever which is not there in your case.
I hope I clariclarified your queries. Please write for follow up queries. I wish you good health. Kindly write a feedback. Thanks
