It’s been eleven weeks since I had an emergency c-section. Lately, after a more active day, but not my most active day, I started feeling some burning and discomfort in my incision. No redness or swelling except in an area where a stitch was getting pushed out like a splinter.

Then a few days later my whole left outward thigh started hurting on the surface of the skin. It feels like someone went at my thigh with sandpaper or that it’s really exposed and raw. It’s not super painful but persistent enough to wake me up from sleep. It feels similar to nerve pain I’ve had in the past. Has anyone else experienced this? I’m guessing the nerves are healing and it’s lighting up that particular area.
