I gave birth at kkh but via subsidised route. I just wait for the stitches to completely dissolve by itself which prolly took abt 1 month. That’s like the time given when confinement end. I don’t think that’s a need to be so rush and paranoid as you need abt 6 weeks time to heal actually. You can always consult your gynae on your follow up check up. Use a sitz bath or swimming float to help you in sitting down. Best is to lie down of course.
Blood discharge lesser doesn’t mean is the blood from the wound. For my first birth it took me around 3 weeks to be able to sit and walk around. For my second birth the pain is only the next day after that I can walk around and the wound healed within one week. It really depend on how long is the stitch. Did you go back to your gynae for follow up check? Just gave birth to my second one at TMC
i had 2nd degree tear for both kids.... it takes at least 1 month for the stictches to dissolve. Please consume the pain medicine given by hospital as well as take orange juice as it has vit c for fast recovery. Both deliveries at KKH.
It does take about a month or month n half to heal and dissolve the stitches... Thats why u will be asked for follow up visit after a month meanwhile, staying on the painkillers would really help.
i don’t think the wound heals so fast within 12 days.. the uncomfortable feeling is not likely to be caused by the stitches but more from the healing tissues in the area..
I went back to see my gynea 2 weeks aft delivery and she remove the undissolve stitches. I'm seeing Pte gynea at tmc
