  • Did they give you dermablast? I bought tucks pads (medicated hemeroid pads) and put that on top to heal. There's also a sitz bath you can do.
  • Hmm well I never needed stiches but, try using that bottle they give u, and spray the water while ur peeing, not just after. Also cold witch hazel pads on ur pad should help. If those dont help, call l&d or ur doc, good luck, hope u recover quickly
  • I thank you're supposed to squirt water on yourself while you pee. Did they give you a squirt bottle?
  • Those stitches are the worst! The dermaplast is a lifesaver though! If they didn't give you any, its in the first aide aisle at the drug store.
  • Oh and congrats on ur little one! :)
  • Yea I got the bottle n dermoplast but it still hurts yesterday I had no pain at all its just today ima hope it dont hurt tomorrow.

    Thsnks :)
