Hi and so sorry about what you are experiencing. After surgery, most of the cut structures get health, solid enough to keep us strong but can break or be strained if subjected to a great force. It is the same thing that can happen in healthy people. Because you c-section was just 7\u00a0months ago, I would have advised that you avoid very strenuous tasks for now. Your symptoms are dominated by bearable pains which correlate mostly with strain. This explains the pains and the limited ability to do routines like before. I am not convinced a CT scan is going to be ordered right away unless the physical exam findings or some other serious symptoms you have not mentioned come up. I suggest rest, painkillers and reassurance will be the way to go. If symptoms persist, worsen or new ones add, then these tests will become very needed. Hope this helps and wish you a speedy recovery.
