Is The Hymen Torn?

Hello, a few days ago i fingered myself and i felt something ping inside me, it didnt hurt or bleed just like an elastic band breaking. that night i tried outting my fingers in and it doesnt feel so elasticated unless you stretch it with three fingers which is really hard. have i broke my hymen or is it just a tear i felt? i really dont want to break it and will it go tight again? also i had a look in the mirror i have a ring i cant see anything uo the top that wasnt there before anyway just loose bits of skin that hangs on the left i have a really thick bit of skin which has always been there but like on top its slightly torn but when you look its like only the top bit where its so thick so is it just a tear or broken the other side is thin but there just seems loose please help i dont want it to break i want that to happen when i make love

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. From your description, it appears that you probably slightly pricked your tissues at the vaginal orifice. The hymen, when torn, gives pain usually along with some bleeding at times. To clarify, you need to have the local examination performed by an expert. The hymen is sometimes lax and allows two fingers even without a tear. This is not an abnormal finding and not to be worried about. Hope this helps.
