I had a 3 degree tear...it took about 2 to 3 months to fully heal...i was a single mother for a very long time. So i wasn't having sex or anything.  I tore naturally, and it took about 3 stitches i think. Maybe 5...i couldn't really tell, seeing that I couldn't look that far. I did not feel it when it happened, but i did feel it every time I went to the bathroom or sitting down or getting back up.
