@askjanette: ❗ Most C-section moms have THIS hidden pain - and doctors won't tell you why You know that mysterious pain between your scar and belly button? The one that hurts for waaaay longer than the actual scar itself? Well, that’s COMMON - and here’s why: 🤯 There are ACTUALLY 4 CUTS that happen during your C-section: 1. The External Incision - This is the ONLY ONE YOU CAN SEE - the horizontal line just above your pubic bone. It goes through skin and fat. Most doctors only mention this one when discussing recovery. 2. The Myofascial Incision - Here's the hidden truth: There's a SECOND horizontal cut made through your muscle covering (the fascia). It's located 2-3 inches ABOVE your visible scar. This one causes most of your lingering pain! P.S. - If you're feeling pain or tightness above your C-section scar months later, you're not imagining it. It's this hidden incision causing problems. Comment below if this describes YOUR experience - I want to know how many women are dealing with this! 3. The Vertical Cut - Your abdominal muscles are separated vertically down the middle (through the linea alba). That’s right - right through your DIASTASIS. 4. The Uterine Cut - The deepest incision goes through your uterus itself. Yes, scar tissue holds it together. No, you can’t really massage this deep. Let me be clear: That pain and tightness across your middle? The lingering pulling when you stand or do Cobra? The pain that "shouldn't be there" according to your doctor? ➡️ It's probably from incision #2 - the one nobody talks about. So. Stop wondering why you still hurt months after surgery... ...This hidden incision is the missing piece of your recovery puzzle.... ...DO SCAR MASSAGE. 🔥 ⭐ Comment below if you feel this mysterious pain just above your external incision - let's get real about what's happening inside our bodies! #csectionrecovery #cesareansection #askjy #csectionshelf #CsectionScar #csectionpain
