question, did any other moms rip really bad? if so how long does it take to stop hurting? I ripped 3 different ways and I can't go to the bathroom with out being in pain and feeling like I'm ripping. one rip goes up and splits so it's on both sides of my clitoris. drs didn't tell me much besides to keep it clean and put these medications on it. but never how long it would take or what I should feel! it's been almost 1 month!

I tore from the inside and had several stitches. I used the peri bottle they gave me religiously after every trip to the bathroom and tucks pads. It took me 4 months to heal, I'm 8 months pp now and the pain in gone but it's still a little scar tissue inside so when it comes to sex it hurts a little

I tore both inside and out, and got the bottle too. it's so annoying.

A sitz bath is a warm, shallow bath that cleanses the perineum here is a picture of it

that's not what I would call a sitz bath that's just like a bed pan or a tool to use with a sitz bath. a sitz bath is a combination of healing herbs and salt you use in your postpartum care. you can soak in a bath with them in a tea/cloth bag of sorts or you if you have a peri or fridget bottle, boil and steep the herbs then strain the warm liquid in the bottle and use that to cleanse yourself when use the bathroom, avoid wiping let yourself air dry. if your wound is still fresh you may want to opt out the salt for now. also some girls like to soak their pads in the liquid and then freeze it they say it helps relieve the pain and swelling, however the cold won't progress healing you need warmth for that so another suggestion would be a hot herbal compress.
