I'm sorry, but mine was neither red nor swollen after 7 days I can tell you that I did not have stiches, but they stapeled it closed. My dr took off the plaster and out the stapels after 6 days and tbh ... it was perfectly closed, no bumps or nothing ... one straight pinkish line.
For peace of mind ... I'll have it checked. Better safe than sorry!
ETA: 'Don't know if this will make a difference, but my c/s were a classic cut to the uterus, meaning vertically accros the uterus, not like "normal" c/s horizontal. Maybe if you were horizontally (is that a word ) cut, it could be that the scar tissue is more prominent ... I really don't know. But still, I would not think that scar tissue being swollen that size of a frankfuter is normal.
