Three weeks post hysterectomy: sore incision
Its been almost 3 weeks that I had surgery and I have really done good. I'm still good but my incision is so sore and on one side I have a red spot that feels infected. I've been on my feet a lot the last couple days. My daughter is in the hospital, she had her baby, and I was up there with her Thursday the whole day and then again yesterday. Maybe being on my feet so much pulled at my incision cause its been pretty painful. I don't think I need the Dr but I think maybe some antibiotic ointment n maybe a bath with a little bleach in it will help. Do u think that's ok?

Re: sore incision
I had one that was pretty painful. I had to keep it covered as rubbing hurt. It wasn't infected, just the way it was healing. I didn't put anything on it, just wiped it everyday. It is ok now but took 7 weeks to get better.

Re: Three weeks post hysterectomy: sore incision
I'm also sore & red on the one side of my incision. My Dr said no baths until I see him again on 4/1. I would keep an eye on it & make sure it doesn't get any worse and that nothing is coming out if it. You may want to call your Dr to let him know.

Re: Three weeks post hysterectomy: sore incision
If I were in your shoes, I would definitely ask my doctor about it. It might be that you were on your feet too much, but better to find out from him/her.

Re: Three weeks post hysterectomy: sore incision
Hello, I am nine weeks post-op and I have one incision that still has a little bump and gets sore . I think it is from muscle strain and not the incision itself. Hope you feel better soon.
