6 wks and cramping and spotting

My gyn gave me a good check up at 4 weeks, and treated one place with silver nitrate. Then at 5 weeks I started having lower pelvic abdominal pain and UTI symptoms. I went in Monday to have a urine check. It was negative. Doc did pelvic exam and said I was getting a stitches infection. I have no fever. I have been on antibiotic a full 3 days (out of seven) but still have the same pain. Also, I have a slight discharge - varying from yellow, to gray to brown. Anyone else have an infection this far away from surgery?

Dear listen2
It's very frustating when things are suppose to be getting better and there's a setback. Things will get better.

AT my 2nd week I had chills, low grade temp, then 101.2. I also had increase belly tenderness. My doc started me on levaquin for a week. I still have some belly tenderness but feel better,and no chills and fever.

I was scared. My doctor explained that it's easy to develop local inflammation and infection as there are alot of bacteria down there. Prior to my surgery I had a betadine douche in the pre-op area.

It sounds like the antibiotics are helping. Do you mind me asking which antibiotic he prescribed? A heating pad to my belly helped the pain. I will keep you inmy thoughts and prayers. Get better soon.
