The wound after cesarean section usually recovers in about 7 days after the operation, but for the muscles of the body of the uterus, the healing time is about 1 month, and it takes about 2-3 months to return to normal completely.
Recovery of the postoperative wound after cesarean section is a gradual process, with local tissue proliferation, elastic fibers and collagen fibers at the incision, and after about 7 days of time, the wound on the surface of the abdomen heals and the sutures can be removed.
For deep myometrial incisions, the healing time is slower, taking about 1 month, and complete return to normal takes about 2-3 months. It takes about 2 years for the scar of the uterine incision to regain some elasticity, so it is recommended that a cesarean section be performed for 2 years before considering another pregnancy.
After cesarean section, patients should take nutrients to strengthen their body to promote the healing of the incision and return to normal as soon as possible.
