  • I forgot how long stiches take to dissolve I had my only tear nearly 16years ago. I usually bleed 6to8weeks after deliveries. Did you try the dermablast spray? It helped me alot!
  • Stitches can take 10 days up to 6 weeks to dizzlove, it all depends hun. Make sure you're still cleaning yourself with warm water in a squirt bottle EVERY time after you use the bathroom, poop or pee. I also suggest the dermoplast spray, it works wonders and buy some which hazel pads, they help a lot for pain relief hun. Hope this helps :) as for the pooping, try a stool softener.
  • I got the squirt bottle bt only wit water
    Idk wt the spray u guys r sayin is nd also wat pads r those?
    I have tuks? There the ones the hospital gave mi
  • :( I just pooped after holdin it in all day lol omg it hurt almost like pushin my bby out lol
  • The spray you can buy at walmart hun, its in a little blue can. Which hazel pads are little round wet pads, my hospital provides them for soothing but I think they are also available at walmart. They will help you a ton hun.
  • Oh hun don't hold it! And if you have to strain, get a stool softener. Straining can pop your stitches.
  • Aw :( I feel bad for you!! I'm due in Sept with my first and am sooo scared of this!! Good luck!
  • Witch hazel pads work so much better than tucks.
  • Kegals help! I just had my son on the 25th and I was scared to pee and poop but the hazel pads feel sooo good OMG I'm still bleeding but its not as heavy from when I was in the hospital and its also I different color
  • @mamidani Do the stitches hurt when you pee or does peeing hurt? I ended up with a uti about a week after he was born and peeing was horrible. You could also try buying witch hazel in a liquid form and use it in your peri bottle as well. It should be cooling and soothing to the stitches as well as everything else.
  • when i had stitches it hurt like hell to pee so my midwife told me to drink lots of fluids as it dilutes the urine it helped me lots
  • I guess it hurts the stitches and all I drink is water and it still burns
  • Definitely get some dermaplast...it's a numbing spray and it's a life saver!! I had stitches too and I think it took about 2 weeks to really feel better.
  • Dermaplast works great! So does the witch hazel pads, or you could use the bottle and dilute the witch hazel in a bottle with it. I hope you feel better sweetie!
  • In wt aisle wld I b able to find that spray at?
  • I'm not sure sweetie. Ask an associate?
  • It should be with the first aid...like the bandaids and stuff
  • Ima try and get it tomorrow hopefully it helps til then ima still nt wna go pee lol it only burns for a few seconds bt jus the thought makes mi nt wna go lol
  • Hope you feel better
  • Do I spray it on befor or after I pee? I jus bought it
  • Will it help the burning next time I pee
  • Dermoplast works great! It is located on the first aid aisle:) and use warm water in a squirt bottle and take stool softeners.
