Yessss this happened to me. It felt like it burning, tingling. Very uncomfortable at 2 weeks I starting using the Frida mom silicone c section patches and it helped with friction and other things. One day you’ll wake up and it doesn’t sting anymore. I’m 3 weeks 3 days PP and I’m back to my normal life!!
I’m 6 weeks post c-section ( this is my 3rd c-section) one thing I will say check it’s not smelling I did use lemon in water and cotton wool to clean my scar naturally and air then make sure you fold a pad over it to capture moisture during the day. I’ve been all good from 4weeks no pain flat scar

Heyy check if there's any fluid or puss from the area, if there is then it's infected and you'll need to go docs. My first c section I had that and it was fine it just took me a while to recover. My 2nd c sec was the same feeling but a lot more painful sore couldn't bend etc and then I saw my scar had a tiny whole, went docs found out it was infected and they gave me a cream for the scar and oral antibiotics xx
