perineal wound

Hello everyone . It's been 3 months since my delivery, the perineal wound took 1 month to heal..have been feeling okay since that but lately I can feel a gap down there where I had the stitches. Can anyone tell me what could be that, is it normal, can wound reopen even after 3 months?it was plain even a week ago ,this happened suddenly. Ps : I don't feel much pain, but can feel slight pinning pain in that area

If it took so long to heal, there could have been a small infection, which could then cause the wound gap to open. I think it’d be good to see your doctor for an examination to see if anything needs to be done. Hopefully it’s just a minor thing that doesn’t need any procedures ❤️

Hi, I think best would be to check with your gynae asap on this as there might be chances of infection

It’s not normal. Do see your doc to see if there is any infection or medical attention required.
