Post partum poly checkup

New mummy here. I gave birth 3 months ago. I got to know i missed my pp check up only after a month plus because i was waiting for them to give me an appointment date. Unknowingly they did gave me a date and i didn’t realise it. My wound is recovering well... but yes at times i do feel uncomfortable down there. Should i be concern of not going? Is there anything i totally missed & i still need to proceed seeing the doc?

I did have an abnormal finding and was told to have another pap smear done in 6 months' time, as opposed to the usual 3 years.
