I had my first c-section in Jan 2000.I was left with a huge hematoma that went from my scar up to my ribs. Before the doctor got the chance to drain it, my scar opened up a little on the right side(about hlf inch) and drained it self. It bled for two weeks and I was visited daily by a district nurse who packed my wound till the hematoma had all gone and the wound healed. After the healing process had finished of the entire scar i was left with small tender lumps all along the scar except for where it had opened up. I could actually put my finger in i ths space. My G.P told me the lumps were scar tissue and that there was nothing he could do about it. I had my secondC-section in sept 2003. Although the wound healed nicely, I have larger lumps then befor along my scar,These are much more painful on the left side especially when my period is due. I get a cramping pain on the left side also when i laugh, sneeze cough etc.Now for the second time in 2 years, even though it was 9 yrs when i had my firs C-section, I have an infection at the point of the scar that opened up with the hematoma. Its a large lump that opens and the infection comes away.Its horrible and very painfull. You would think after 9 yrs, i wouldn't have any more trouble with that. Has anyone ever heard of this before? The doctors are no use and tell me that theres nothing that hey can do. Please help.
