When the stitches were healing like a week later I think maybe 2 weeks? it was horrible. I was very itchy and irritating for me. I kept using that water bottle for awhile though it helped so much! that spray medication stuff has a numbing agent in it I believe so it helped along with the medicated pads and water bottle.

@ashley1215, okay I got the water bottle but it still burns like.crazy lol how long did it take you to feel better after you had her?

My hospital gave me those pads, a medicated spray and a bottle that they told me to put warm water in and to spray that water or let it run down me while I was using the bathroom! it helps alot. if they didn't give you one then use an extra cup or something just to put warm water in, when you use the bathroom pour it over yourself and it should help. the medicated spray can be bought at a pharmacy it's called dermoplast I believe. I hope you get better soon! I had a ton of stitches after my daughter

@ashley1215, they gave me witch hazel pads and 800mg Motrin that's it

Did they not give you tucks pads and medicated spray? or the spritzer? (spelling & correct term, idk?)

my tear was down though not up. ouch.

took me a little over a week.
