Constant ache/bruised feeling in vulva?

[Indoorvoicesbluey]

I’m so fed up.

back ground I had epsiotomy repair surgery 11 years ago and it was rather deep into the muscle.

iv always ached abit down there if I walk too much etc but the last few weeks it’s constant. Like if I go toilet for a poo and I push it hurts. If I sit down even on the toilet it hurts.

it feels bruised/heavy. I’m on my period atm and can’t wear my cup as jr hurts to put it in and out. Ah, fed up :(

I know the feeling, unfortunately. I had that heavy, dragging pressure on and off until I had my second baby. I am actually glad that I re-tore along the episiotomy line, because I was re-sutured really well and have never had a problem since.

If you can I would see a private physio who specializes in women's / pelvic health. They know heaps about this stuff.
