3rd degree tear recovery
Just gave birth yesterday and ended up having a 3rd degree tear with a ton of stitches. I am worried about getting infected. I took my first shower today and didn’t wash down there, just took the shower head and rinsed with warm water for a minute or so. I noticed I stunk when I changed my pad a few minutes ago. I wiped my butt crack with a disposable cloth and I seems like that’s where the smell is coming from. It smells rotten almost, not like a normal dirty butt lol. Would it be infected that soon or just because of what I just went through?
