After c-section I get infection. Doctor prescribed me antibiotics. After antibiotics wound become dry but after 15 days I noticed small opening. My doctor refer me for infrared therapy , antibiotics and dressing. But no relief. Doctor told me just put gauze it will heal it self. After 2 months i noticed small opening is there. I went to other doctor he found the suture knot under the opening and he removed it. Now nearly 6 months small hole still there. Some times smelly discharge is coming. Now what is the treatment for my condition? Someone told me it will become fistula if not treated properly. Doctor says it is a sinus.Please suggest me the best treatment.
Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about this wound infection after surgery. I will like your doctor to explore this area and make sure that there is no material that your body is rejecting. There are moments where the sutures are being rejected by the body and if they are not taken out, the infection would not get controlled. I will suggest that you follow up and ask your doctor about this specifically and hear what he has to say. I hope this helps. Furthermore, I wish you well and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
