Labial Tear Healing?

Hi all! Super fun topic: I’m three weeks postpartum, but I’m still having some pain, light bleeding, and trouble sitting from a labial tear and stitches. I’ve been too scared to look closely, but I’m wondering if anyone has experience with this kind of tear, suggestions for healing, and estimates of how long before I can sit and walk without discomfort. Thank you for any help you can provide!

I had a minor labia tear with my first. It took about a month before the pain eased up for me, after the initial burning it just felt like a giant bruise 😖 I used “ice pack” pads for the first few weeks if it was bothering me really bad and sat on pillows.

I had a small labia tear aswell. Although I can’t answer your question, I am noticing (4m PP) that I still feel it a little bit at times. A little sensitive. I hope you heal fast & well 🫶🏽🤍

I swear by Witch Hazel. Make sure you get the alcohol free. It helps keep the area clean and heals!

I had the same and used witch hazel. It made it feel worse to me at the time but I guess it helped me heal pretty fast!
