Yes for me. It’s also very uncomfortable. Maybe cos I don’t have epidural

Yes still bearable. I feel the after effect is more painful as compared to the time when doc is doing the stitches. The pain will last for few weeks. Remember to wash your wound with warm water and pat it dry after every toilet visit.
