Im a 21 year old female who is 16 days postpartum and for the last 2-3 days i have begun to feel a tightness sort of heavy feeling around my heart/in my chest...also im experiencing sharp knife/stabbing pain in my abdomen/below the incision...i had a c-section but with my previous c-section i didnt experience the knife/stabbing pain...what could it be should i be worried...i do have a history of heart conditions as a baby that required yearly ekgs and etc for a while
Tightness and heaviness may occur normally with muscle pain, sharp pain in abdominal incision is due to in surgery small cutaneous nerves will be cut that is not a major problem.no need to concern about it
