What Causes Abdominal Pain Around The Navel After A C-section Delivery?

Hi, I just had my 5th baby. Last two were born csection and I had both of,my,tubes removed. She was born,3/8/17. My,incision healed nicely. No pain at all, however every 2 to,3 days I get severe abdominal pain near naval area. Naval and above. Its excruciating pain, to where I can barely breathe. It lasts half hour to an hour and,resolves on,it s own.becomes worse when walking. Feels as if someone is twisting a knife. I also have umbilical hernia which doctor said needs to,be removed once,healed. Any ideas what this pain could be caused from?

Hi, I think it is the pain of your umbilical hernia. You can avoid heavy work and can wear and abdominal belt to get some relief. But ultimately it needs to be removed surgically.
