My second time pregnancy section scarline seems to be infected. The wound was oozing pus but unfortunately the pus culture test done twice has come out all normal. The wound has now stopped oozing pus from last 2 days but the gynae does not seem happy n convinced with the healing. I am dressing since past 2 weeks combined with antibiotics such as moxikind first, later lenovav 250 and now zady 500. Today there was no pus oozing from my wound yet gynae asked staff to clean my wound with some liquid hydrogen and betadine followed by dressing. Perhaps shes not happy with the healing n recovery. And I am supposed to take zady 500 for next 3 days. My gynae claims that since pus culture report is normal we have to do all this hit n trial in treatment. Tomorrow she plans to call the surgeon who performed my section surgery for seeking his opinion n advice. I am very worried now as to what maybe cause of this infection n what steps I should take to get my wound to heal soon. Please advice what could be the possible causes for my infection? Should I take second opinion from some bigger hospital to arrest this situation early or wait and cooperate with the existing approach of my gynae. Confused and very worried. My age is 37 and I have a lump of sagging skin falling over the incision site too but I have been avoiding too much sitting position due to same reason.
