Hi everyone, I'm hoping there might be some other women out there who have had a similar experience to me. I ended up with a c-section a month ago and about two weeks after I discovered that I had a post-operative infection. I have been told that it is superficial (apparently none of my reproductive organs are involved), but I am concerned about the length of time it is taking for this issue to resolve itself. Without going into the grotty details, I have been on two different kinds of antibiotic for just under two weeks, and it is still there. My OB has told me that it may take a few weeks to clear, but surely after having almost completely my antibiotic course things would have cleared up by now? I'm just wondering whether anyone else has ended up with an infection after a caesarean, and how long they took to get over this. I'm considering getting a second medical opinion on this, because I'm worried about how long this is taking - it isn't very pleasant!
