  5. I'm a bit worried because it's been about 20 days since my C-section, and now I'm noticing some puss coming out from the incision. There's a sort of pimple or bubble that's formed along the incision line. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing it, and should I see someone about it?

It sounds like there might be an infection at the incision site, which can happen after surgery. I recommend seeing your doctor as soon as possible to have the area examined, and they may suggest draining the pus and possibly prescribing antibiotics to help with the infection. Take care of the wound by keeping it clean and avoiding any irritation.
