I had to have forceps and an episiotomy for the birth of my baby and I am still not healed10 weeks on. The stitches started to come apart so the rest were cut and was left as an open wound. I have been back and forward to the doctors/hospital ever since and am always given different advice. The doctor is now writing to the hospital and suggested they might need to cauterise the area that is still not healed which may be painful. Has anybody else had a similar experience or advice?? Debating contacting NHS ombudsman as been told different things by everyone I have seen and been passed from person to person and have had to dig my heels in to be seen and had antibiotics twice. I feel really let down and is still painful doing day to day things.
