Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. I understand your concern regarding the pain you're experiencing after your cesarean delivery.
If the pain is coming from the scar area, you may benefit from a local injection of kenocort to the scar mark. This can help reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort. Additionally, applying ointment like hexilac twice a day can further aid in healing and provide relief.
Thanks
