Hi Andy 1116, I don't know what swollen means to you so I will assume inflamed and tender, and in the area surrounding the incision. I highly recommend you see a medical practitioner aside from your gyn surgeon. Here's why. I know someone who had gauze & a glass fragment mistakenly forgotten in their accident wound site when their life was being desperately saved. The sealed wound site was constantly inflamed and tender until a doctor did a scan and found out her body was fighting these foreign objects. If you were just having occasional pain I'd say its prolonged healing. But if you have inflammation, it could be more than that. Just check with someone else.
