Nasty graze during childbirth - any advice?

[je2609]

My sister had a baby on Weds and is in agony with a nasty graze. She's tried creams etc but these haven't worked and toilet trips proving v painful. Any tips on things she could do to ease the pain and/or help with the healing? Thanks!

Congratulations to both of you!

You sound like a lovely caring sister

Thanks all and congratulations to ninja too! I'm visiting now for a few days and she's doing much better. Tips have been invaluable and she sends her thanks to you all. I think she's a MN convert from now on!

Yeouch. It's probably worth steering clear of too much citrus for a few days too goes away cringing

Thanks je glad she's doing better.
