I had a normal delivery 6 days back and got stitches down there. It still pains when i sit and im a bit anxious about how long this takes. did urs heal fast? just want some idea of the timeline.
It usually takes a few weeks, but if you notice redness, pus, foul smell or increasing pain, call your doctor right away. That can mean infection and needs attention. Otherwise normal healing just needs cleanliness and rest.
I delivered recently so im in the healing phase myself. The first ten days were tender but its improving day by day. My doctor told me to keep it clean and not strain, that advice has helped a lot.
I had normal delivery with a few stitches and they healed in about two to three weeks. Warm water cleaning and sitting carefully helped. It feels sore at first but it does get better, hang in there.
I had a c section and the stitches took a few weeks to feel properly healed. The first week was the hardest, after that it slowly got easier. Just go slow, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid lifting heavy things, your body knows how to heal.
