5 weeks- still sore

[Curlypop]

Hello.
I had a quick birth and had a 2nd degree tear, the stitches have healed and look lean, lochia is pretty much finished but my perineum still feels bruised, and it tender and a bit 'sharp' feeling when sitting down but not enough to warrant paracetamol.
Is this normal or should I be worried?!

I’d certainly mention it at your 6 week check.

I’m 3 weeks post partum tomorrow and also had a second degree tear. I’ve been comfortable since about day 3/4. I feel pretty much back to normal now.

Thanks, I did feel great but this last week or so this tender feeling has begun.
