January 9, 2015
Asked By:lindyloo03 in Brisbane, AU

I have noticed i have a mondors cord but mine is stretching all the way down level to my belly button. I can't really see where it begins. Is it ok that is this large? Will it keep getting longer? It is quite painful on stretching in anyway and then i have a dull ache there. I'm 4 weeks PO. Is there anything other than heat and anti inflammatories that can help?
