Question

My wife had a c-section a month ago but still has pain and swelling around the stitches. Is this normal or should we be worried? What can we do to help her heal faster and are there any medicines that might help with the recovery?

It's understandable to be concerned about pain and swelling around the C-section incision, even a month after surgery. While some pain and swelling are normal, it's crucial to monitor for signs of infection. Seek immediate medical attention if there's increasing pain, redness, swelling, or discharge from the incision, or if your wife develops a fever

Question

I'm really concerned because post-pregnancy, I'm dealing with a fungal infection and blood in my stool. My doctor prescribed me to look at cream and itaspor for the fungal issue and proctosedyl for the piles. I'm also taking iron and calcium tablets. I'm confused and worried because someone mentioned that I shouldn't use proctosedyl while having a fungal infection. Can I use them both at the same time, or should I be avoiding it?
