How to treat vaginal fissures after pregnancy

Patient's question:

Doctor, after giving birth, I had a vaginal delivery that turned into a C-section. After delivery, I experienced cracks in the area near the vaginal opening and close to the anus during sexual intercourse, which greatly disturbs my mood. I had my discharge examined at the hospital, and the doctor said there was no inflammation. I also pay close attention to hygiene, and recently I have been using Jieryin liquid for washing, but the cracks still occur. After the C-section, the scars on my abdomen are still very noticeable. The doctor said I have a scar-prone constitution. Could it be that the recurring cracks near the vaginal opening are related to my scar-prone constitution? How should the doctor address this issue?

Doctor's answer:

No problem. Your symptoms and medical history suggest the possibility of vaginal inflammation, which requires follow-up in the gynecology department for further tests. If it is confirmed that you have vaginal inflammation, additional medication will need to be determined based on the nature of your vaginal inflammation. Generally, sexual activity should be avoided during medication, and spicy or irritating foods should not be consumed. A follow-up test for vaginal discharge routine should be conducted after your next menstrual period.
