Post parting belt
I had c section 2 weeks back and was recommended to tie cotton cloth almost immediately. However I couldn't as I was waiting for stitches to heal. I would like to use Post part belts over cotton cloth as it's convenient to use. Can I start putting the belt now? If so, should I leave the stitch part open or cover the stitch?? Would there be any swelling in stitch if I leave stitch part??
