3.5 weeks pp and my stitches are uncomfortable - painful itchy and it burns more to pee now then it did initially pp! I went in for a 3 week check with ob cuz I thought it might be infected and it didn’t smell right either but doc said it looks good and this is normal

This is second baby and I had an episiotomy with the first I don’t remember it being this bad in healing ! I got a second degree tear this time and baby was big 8.3

The dermaplast now burns so bad I put it away and I use thr ticks pads but do how r u guys using them ? I have pretty bad hemmorids still so every time I poop I wipe with toliet paper and the tucks pads - I was using the pads to line up my hospitla pads but once those finished like a week pp almslt I stopped lining thr tucks pads on sanitary pads for my vagina area too because they would get absorbed by my always pad I guess they’re a different material than the hospital pads ? So it felt so gross so now I’m just using the ticks pads when I poop to wipe

Sorry about all the poop talk but I’m just so uncomfortable going to the bathroom or even sitting 😩
