3rd degree tear... still in pain?

I had a 3rd degree tear during my delivery and obviously got stitches. I’m currently 6 weeks pp and my stitches have dissolved. However, I’m still in pain in the area closer to the anus (tmi sorry). It’s definitely still uncomfortable for me to sit for long (i.e. while breastfeeding). Anyone else feeling the same? Of am I not healing properly?

My appointment with my OB is not until next week.
