Caesarean section scar has hard pimples

Caesarean sections will leave scars, which will not only affect the beauty of the skin, but may also cause infection and lesions, so we can use scar removal methods to eliminate scars. When hard lumps appear on the scar, it means that the wound is infected. At this time, we should disinfect and clean it. If there is secretion from the incision, we should seek medical attention in time and eat more protein to promote wound recovery.

1. Carry out disinfection and cleaning, and do not let the wound get wet.

Mothers who have undergone cesarean section should follow the doctor's instructions and change the gauze and medicine on the incision regularly. When replacing it, first use a sterilized cotton ball dipped in 75% alcohol to wipe the area around the incision, then apply medicine and tie gauze. Do not get the wound wet before it heals, so it is best not to take a bath within 2 weeks after delivery to prevent water from contaminating the wound and causing infection and inflammation. You can wipe your body with a wet towel to relieve discomfort.

2. Eat more foods that are beneficial to wound healing.

The healing of incisions requires a lot of nutritional support, so mothers who have undergone cesarean section must ensure that they have rich nutrition after delivery. The nutrients needed for wound healing are mainly protein, trace elements zinc, iron, B vitamins and vitamin C. Mothers can supplement them by eating the following foods: fish, chicken, eggs containing high-quality protein and B vitamins, kelp and fungus rich in zinc, apples, oranges, strawberries rich in vitamin C, etc. In addition, propolis capsules and pollen tablets can also help wound healing, so you can eat some of them appropriately.

3. How to deal with incision discomfort

Mothers who have undergone cesarean section after delivery should pay attention to the incision. If there is a lot of exudate flowing out of the incision, they should tell the medical staff in time to deal with it. If you have been discharged from the hospital, you can drain the wound yourself with high-permeability saline gauze and flush it with saline, while increasing the frequency of dressing changes. If the exudation is severe, go to the hospital for treatment.

It is normal for the incision to itch. Never scratch it with your hands. You can apply some anti-itch ointment around the incision to relieve the pain.

The incision will begin to hurt after the anesthetic wears off, and the pain will not subside until 2-3 days later. If the pain persists and there are abnormal conditions, such as redness, swelling and heat of the incision, tingling when pressing the wound with your hand, and local fluctuations, it may be inflammation and suppuration, and you need to go to the hospital for treatment in time.
