Traumatic vaginal injury....

[Worried234]

I am currently sat in A and E, just been triaged and given morphine, I have about a 2 hour wait to see a doctor. Can MN keep me awake/company?
I fell onto a stairgate while jumping over it (lazy), and landed across it, my vagina took my weight, and I have a laceration almost completely through my labia. It's excruciating and I feel sick. What an idiot!

Ouch. If you've been given morphine, I'd have a sleep for a bit.

Ouch!!! Try get some sleep if you can and forget about the pain! Hope your ok x

Ouch. Your poor thing. Sounds very painful. Hope you get seen soon.

you poor thing.

Ohhh that sounds sore!!!! I hope your ok OP - is a&e busy? I literally just done the exact manoeuvre on the stair gate to by pass my toddler with my washing basket - I’ll definitely not be doing that again!

Oh my god you poor thing that sounds nasty. Are you by yourself? Has the morphine kicked in yet?

Ouch. Hope you get seen to soon. I’m so glad we’ve no stair gates left!

Omg @Worried234 has just brought back a recurring nightmare from secondary school about compulsory high jump[confused

Really hope you get seen soon and it’s all fixable.

Hi everyone, thank you. Can't sleep as am sat on a chair in the waiting room. Got about an hours wait left now. Pain subsiding a little, but feel very very woozy. Really feel stupid being here for this, but it definitely needs to be stitched.

PS Yes I am by myself. Nobody is allowed to accompany me, due to Covid restrictions. OH dropped me off.

Ouch! Poor you! That sounds so painful. Hope you get seen soon.

Shame OH isn't allowed in to keep you company. I took mine Fri & was allowed in all areas with him as long as i wore my mask. I didn't have to keep being told either - unlike Boris!!

Just about to see the Dr..

Ouch!!! Hope you’re sorted out soon.

Hope you're ok OP. Not the same but I'm 4w PP and not having a great recovery from episiotomy (again - had a time of it with my first too), and perineal pain can be so so so painful and difficult to manage. That's before you even get to the embarrassment factor - not that there should be one but it can feel difficult to talk about it. Demand as much pain relief as you need - if you're stitched make sure you get good pain relief for it and good pain relief to take home on discharge as I'd imaigne it would take a least a few weeks to heal.

I just winced reading that. You poor thing.

Hope you get sorted and are on the mend very soon.

Ouch

I hope they have you sorted real soon

That's grim. I hope they give you plenty of local.

I feel sick for you! Oooof. Hope they can help you and it looks worse than it is

Omg you poor thing!!!

Ouch!

Gosh (understatement). Hope you get treated and get better soon.

Omg you poor woman. Hope you are ok and I will learn from your mistake and stop jumping over the stair gate!!!

Oh no. That sounds soooo painful. I hope you are sorted soon and make a quick recovery.

Eeek! I'm wincing for you! Hope you are ok
