When should the strip be removed after a cesarean section?
Hello, my emergency cesarean section was almost a month ago…. I still have the "stripes" (?) on the cesarean section scar
I'm afraid to take it off. I don't really want to yet. It's still in place and hasn't come off on its own yet. Is it bad if I leave it on? It doesn't smell either.
You should definitely get rid of them!
Why can something happen?
It’s a risk of infection. Bacteria form without end.
In the first days yes, but by the wound fluid and the blood etc., bacteria form with time.
Yes, but I thought it was protected.
