Where Is a C Section Scar?

C-sections are generally safe, but unlike a vaginal delivery, they involve a surgical procedure. So you can expect some scarring after the incision heals. The good news is that C-section scars are usually small and below the bikini line. Once the scar heals, you may only have a faded line that's barely noticeable.

Where is the incision for ac section?

A C-section includes an abdominal incision and a uterine incision. The abdominal incision is made first. It's either a vertical incision between your navel and pubic hair (left) or, more commonly, a horizontal incision lower on your abdomen (right).

What organ is behind C-section scar?

Even after the incision has healed, complications from the scar can continue. These complications can be on a superficial level – such as hypersensitivities around the scar – and also deep down into the layers of the abdominal fascia and the organs behind it, such as the bladder and the intestines.
