Hi! Who else has a burning, itchy scar (C-section) during the last weeks? Could this be harmful?

    That tight feeling seems normal to me, but a burning sensation doesn't seem quite right. Is it inflamed? Once the wound has closed, I'd use VSM's calendula ointment to rub into the scar—it really helps the wound and skin heal. And if you're not sure, just pop by your OB/GYN or GP!

    Sorry for the late reply, but it's not inflamed, it's just pulling underneath. I need to hang in there a bit longer until the 30th, then we'll know more.
