I gave birth 11 days ago to a beautiful baby boy however i had to be induced and this brought on labour very quickly, i had two 2nd degree tears and have been really sore especially when i sit down. I have recently found that when i pee it is sore and my cliterous area has been painful and i think there maybe some puss. I am uncertain and don't really want to go to the hospital to be checked out as i found some of the staff could be patronising.
