Any odor or puss? Mine was/is sore, but no redness or swelling. 5 weeks pp is kinda a long time post surgery for it to be getting red again. I'm 4 weeks and I can't even see my scar!
I would call your dr. I'm almost 3 weeks post partum and I got an infection in my incision after 2 weeks which my obgyn said was pretty unusual. It was painful, red, and even started bleeding
