Hi,
I had my baby 3 days ago and had a number of stitches in my vagina. I was able to pee and poo with no issues at all until today
Now when I pee, my vagina is very sore and remains sore for some time afterwards. It’s almost impossible to use tissue to dry myself following a wee so I followed the midwives advice and after I have been to the loo, I rinse with warm water and pat dry the area.
Does anyone have any tips to stop the sting? Is there an easier way to clean/dry the area following a wee?
Any help appreciated, thanks
