Still so sore 12 days postpartum

I had a forceps assisted delivery which resulted in internal vaginal lacerations and a torn cervix which both had to be repaired with stitches. After 12 days postpartum I am still in a lot of pain and feel immense pressure "down there", especially when sitting.

Has anyone had a similar healing process? And how long did it take to not feel so painful?
