Hematoma after c section

I had one from 1 week after, mine lasted for over 10 weeks but no issues and it is also on the top of my scar, like a lump under skin, currently 12 weeks pp still got a bit of a lump but 95% absorbed back into body, had no worries about it

Something rupture 3 days PP for me which caused an internal bleed. I had a 15cm hematoma behind my incision and it drained out for like 3-4 weeks. It was gross changing the dressings 2-3 times a day and it smelt really bad. I ended up getting an infection and needed 3 rounds of antibiotics. If yours is draining out your incision, just try to keep it as dry as possible.

I had it both c section. Do not wet it, take your oral AB’s. Keep it dry and clean it with Saline. I didn’t wet it in the shower for 6-7weeks but mine was open and leaking.

I developed my haematoma underneath my scar at 3 1/2 weeks postpartum. My scar was bright red on one side and really hard. I was feeling sick and dizzy and really warm so I went to the emergency and they put me on a drip and antibiotics immediately but the haematoma kept growing and I was required to get it surgically drained. So this is interesting to me that they are adamant against not doing the procedure. But everyone is different and in your case, maybe it’s not that bad of a case? I’m sure if the doctors are telling you not to be worried then you are probably fine. 🫶🏼 that you should trust your Gut and if you are still concerned, maybe go to a different hospital for a second opinion! :)
