I had a c-section over 9 years and and today in the shower I noticed it was very red and irritated, hurt to touch in one area.  Is this a problem?.  Unfortunetley i am overweight after having 4 children.  Only my first was a c-section.  What should i do.  There does not seem to be an odor that I notice.
Thanks for the advice!!

I would use some peroxide, antibiotic ointment and make sure your clothes aren't rubbing it.  If it doesn't get better see a dr.
