What causes c section scar pain?

Any Momma’s out there that have had a csection (my last one a year and a half ago) that has a pain after getting up from laying on their stomach? It’s right where the incision is on one side. It’s only when I’ve laid on my belly (doesn’t hurt while I’m laying) and hurts when I get up once the pressure is off of it. I know yes “go to the doctor” obviously… I just wanted to see if it’s normal or what.

My doc said it’s still the nerves healing. I get a severe burning pain in my scar that makes me stop doing whatever it is I was doing.
Just the nerves apparently. They did an ultrasound too and everything looked fine.

Nerves healing felt like electricity and the pain would take my breath away. Took months.

I have the same problem. And sometimes, there is a dull ache on one side after a long day or one with a lot of activity. My LO is 3 months old.

Nerve pain. It is awful! Heat helps me.

2 c sections here and yes sadly I deal with the same! I hate when my monthly visit comes because my cramps are unbearable :tired_face::tired_face:

It’s just the nerves in your incision being wonky

I’ve had 2 c-sections. It’s the nerves healing. My youngest is nearly 7 years old, and I still can’t feel the skin around my incision. I still get pains there periodically.
