Suggest Treatment For Episiotomy Tear And Clear Discharge
I had a vaginal birth just over 12 weeks ago there was a slight tear as well as an appesiotomy. They stiched up the appesiotomy but not the tear. The tear is about 1/2 cm long and still sore and very red to look at. There is a also a lot of clear discharge as well.
