I had stitches after childbirth 4 months ago, and I still feel pain at the stitches site. What medicines or treatment can help reduce this pain?
Mild pain at the stitches site after childbirth can sometimes persist for a few months, especially if the area is still healing or if there is irritation or scar tissue. You can try warm sitz baths, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding prolonged sitting to help reduce discomfort. Doctors may also recommend mild pain relievers like Paracetamol or soothing creams if needed.
