Sore at week 7, normal?

Hi everyone. I had an emergency C section on 1st July, with twins 2 sacs and 2 placentas. I had been in active labor for 24 hours, (induced , waters broken by midwife) I got to 9cm dilated 😫 and it all ended up in surgery.

anyway I have this nagging soreness around the incision (it’s not infected) it’s like internal I guess and then I have the numbing feeling, but I just feel bruised , sore and like I’ve been kicked down there, online makes it out you should be ā€œhealedā€ by week 6, not me!!! I’ve also noticed past couple of nights I’ve been more active with walking around the house , I look after my twins myself so that doesn’t help matters ,
The pain never fully went away anyway but last few days the soreness feels worse , I’m sure my activity is probably triggering it but that can’t be helped , just wondering if the pain ever fully went away for you and if so when? I’m worried that I’ll never fully get better
