Perineal tear still hurts and bleed at week 5 postpartum

Hi, any mommies know if it’s normal for a perineal tear to still hurt mildly after 5 weeks? There’s still a little red blood coming out every now and then too.

Best to get it checked out by your obstetrician to understand the cause of it if it persists longer. Typically you’re looking at 3-6 weeks as the uterus is healing.
