@Ellie no just sore still but no bleeding or oozing
@Amber I hate the lack of research with things like this! They just guess what the issue is. Not sure why they don't do proper swabs 🙄 have you got any other symptoms? Any bleeding/oozing/pain?
@Ellie I’m not sure what it is. They weren’t even sure it was infection there. They said it could be any type of infection but only looked at the incision and felt it which was warm to the touch. We are gonna try the meds and see what they do and if they help and go from there I guess.
Hey, I contracted cellulitis in my scar a week after my c section. Unfortunately it took 5 months for me to get better, I had 7 lots of antibiotics which didn't work and then used a gel on the wound which seemed to help. I also had wound care every 2 days for a month (they would clean the wound, fill the openings with antiseptic gel and then redress) have they confirmed what the infection actually is? Because if not, they could be giving you medication which won't clear it/isn't strong enough. The best thing you can do is take any help you can get, rest as much as possible, keep the incision clean (I used antiseptic wound wipes) it will get better I promise. I'm really sorry you're dealing with this, it totally broke me when I went through it. Message me if you need anything xxxx
I would speak to your doctor again I’d you’ve developed a fever after antibiotics have started. Best to be on the safe side. Try and keep fluids up

@Amber that's good then! The antibiotics will probably sort it. Mine escalated too quickly so that's probably why it didn't help. Good luck xxx
