A. Staphylococcus aureus, or staph bacteria, are the most common cause of post-cesarean wound infections, causing an estimated 15–20 percent of cases. Staph bacteria naturally live on people's hair and skin. When they multiply and enter a wound, they can cause several types of infection.Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most common complications following cesarean section, and has an incidence of 3%–15%. It places physical and emotional burdens on the mother herself and a significant financial burden on the health care system.Regular follow-up visits with your obstetrician.Practising good hygiene and healing.Stay hydrated and drink plenty of fluids.Avoiding any strenuous exercises that may put pressure on the abdomen area and stitches.Resting as much as possible.
