i tore both times and they gave me a spray bottle. water as warm as you can stand it helps.... this time they gave me tucks pads and pads that have a cooling pad in them. that helps to keep the puffiness down and that keeps some pain away
I honestly used nothing and I had a second degree tear. I felt like witch hazel burned so bad and so did dermaplast. but the nurses say dermaplast and soaks in the tub really help
Depends how bad you tear. I had 4th degree tearing and a full episiotomy. I had to take sits baths with iodine, they make a medical numbing spray that helped. took about 3 months to be able to sit without wincing and almost a year for sex to be comfortable.
Pain meds and sitz baths. I tore all the way back because my ob didn't give me an episiotomy because she insisted I'd stretch (lol 😡). It hurt like hell but thank goodness for meds and warm sitz baths because going to the bathroom especially was not fun!
