C-Sections: The gift that keeps on giving

For those of you old timer C-Section’rs and newly acquired C-Section’rs, here’s a little fun ditty to store in your cache.
I have a friend who was recently having discomfort with her C-Section scar. Mind you, it’s been 17 years since that scar had been stapled shut, stitched inside and out, and closed up for business. However, upon her discomfort level she did one of those peek sees down her pants and saw  it was popping open or something because it was bleeding.  (ladies you know what peek-see I’m talking about…years of the MENNIS, I mean menses).  After closer scrutiny, she realized something was sticking out and it very much resembled a fishermen’s slip knot.
After a few calls and her physicians thinking they were dealing with a Maunchausen Syndrome patient, her OB/GYN office relented and booked her an appointment.  Well, when her Doctor saw her old war wound sprouting knotted fishing line, he just couldn’t believe it or didn’t want to believe it.  I think my friend has the potential for making the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest residing non-dissolving suture.  This wasn’t the first time either!  One of these fly fishers surfaced 2 years ago at the 15 year mark.  I begged to photograph the area with the hope her insurance company will pay for a tummy tuck after the surgeon goes in to remove her internal chia pet. She hasn’t bought into my photo op yet, but she knows full well my photos always come in handy at the most opportune moments.
In the meantime, I told her if her knotty scar was rubbing against her clothing, she should use my ingenious idea of placing a little panty liner onto her undies/padded side towards the inflicted area.

Since she refused having her little fishing expedition photographed, I had to use an archived photo; and as you can see, the panty liner cushion works great for laparoscopic holes as well.  I’m sure men would just love this as well.
