How long can a c-section wound touch water

C-section wounds can usually be touched with water in 1~2 weeks, but the exact time for touching water depends on the recovery of the wound. After a cesarean section, the wound will have pain, redness, swelling and other discomforts for 1 week, and most women’s wounds will slowly heal in 5~7 days. If the wound recovers well, the woman can touch water in about 1 week.

If the mother after the cesarean section, the wound pus and other conditions, it is recommended that timely medical care, under the guidance of the doctor, improve the relevant examination, clear cause, symptomatic treatment.
