Second degree tear
Hi, I could really use some help or guidance.
I gave birth to my first child 6 weeks ago and tore both inside and outside. I had stitches inside and none outside but I do have a tear outside which they said would heal by itself. It still feels very tender and is still very open. Should this have healed by now? And how long shall I leave it before being concerned as I am very worried. Thank you
