How To Clean Cesarean Wound. Use warm, soapy water to wash your incision daily (usually when you shower). Clean the wound area gently with mild soap and water, antiseptic wash, or saline spray.

It’s not necessary to scrub it. Don't apply any creams or ointments to the incision until your doctor says it's fully healed, usually about six weeks after surgery. Use cleansing products that can make your wound heal slowly.
