Episiotomy pain 7 months postnatal

[laxobellavida]

Hi ladies! I've has some concerns about my episiotomy.
I gave birth to an almost 10 pound baby boy 7 months ago. During the delivery, I had to have an episiotomy and I had very bad hemmoroids. The episiotomy took a few months to heal and some stitches fell out prematurely, which led to an extended healing time. I've had sex since then with no pain. But when I sit for long periods of time, the area (left side) where the cut was aches or I'll get throbbing aches in my rectum. Has anyone else had this? At first I thought it was due to healing but now it's 7 months later and I'm getting worried..

I had an episiotomy with my first birth and I often got little aches and pains down there, even when my daughter was 18 months old. If your worried in the slightest I would go see your doctor

I had throbing pain in my rectum for 2 years after dd was born. It was an anal fissure. It might be worthwhile mentioning it to your doctor because there are treatments available for it. Then again if it is an anal fissure, bowel mouvements would be quite painful.
