Hives around scar after c section
Hi, my c section was almost 2 years ago now but I'm still getting hives - big itchy welts that come up at night & go during the day - that come up around the scar & up to my belly button. Almost 2 years on and it's less frequent but still get it a few times a week. Has anyone else experienced this?
I had nerve damage from my c section as well.

hmm, that sounds super frustrating, I've heard some people get weird skin reactions after a c-section, maybe it’s worth chatting with your doc about it? here's what the 'Heal Baby Care App' says.... "I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with this discomfort. It's not uncommon for some individuals to experience skin reactions around surgical scars, which can be related to nerve damage or sensitivity in that area. Hives can also be triggered by various factors, including allergies or stress. Have you noticed any specific triggers that coincide with the hives, such as certain foods, fabrics, or stress levels? This information could help narrow down the cause and guide potential solutions."
