Tear with no stitches

I had my daughter on July 2nd and had an amazing smooth & fast labour & delivery. The Doctor said I had one small tear that didn't require stitches. I have obviously been a bit sore and had some bleeding but the bleeding has lessened quite a bit. I took a look with a mirror today and to me the tear looks fairly deep and is still open. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had a tear without stitches and how long it took to heal...
