POST C-SECTION!!! SOMEONE!!! ANYONE!!! HELP!!!

I had my son 4 months ago via c-section due to him being so big. He weighed 11 lbs 13 oz at birth. I am having the absolute worst itching of my life around my incision scar!!! And what makes it worse is that I am still completely numb in that area too!! Will I ever regain feeling in that spot again?? Can anyone relate or offer any advice before I rip my skin off?!?!?

I had my first c section in 2006 and two others in 2010 and 2012. I still have zero feeling along my scar, the itching is from it healing and it ***** big time, I used a mild lotion to help with it. Aquafor I believe.

I had a c-section with my last one, almost 2 years ago, and this last month my incision keeps itching, but aside from this pass month the itching had gone away.

It took me 8 months to feel most of my incision again. It is still slightly numb too. Just make sure to gently vlean it once a day and it will itch for awhile. That means it's healing properly though.

My mom had two and she says she's still numb there and that at first it felt like they sewed an itch inside which obviously can't happen. It is most likely the inside insition healing and should go away soon good luck
