I had an episiotomy/forceps 5 months ago. Quite a long cut but 'j' shaped so didn't go onto my perineum, just vagina and out to the side. It healed fairly well and I obviously have a scar but I find that it still hurts sometimes if I've been sitting on the floor or a hard chair, also sometimes when I need to poo and during sex to begin with and after a few minutes. Can any one who has already experienced this tell me when/if it will get to a point where it just never hurts? It feels a lot like pressing a bruise when it does hurt.
