How should labial laceration be treated?

Patient's question:

How is the cause of vulvar laceration? How should it be treated? Is it serious? Thank you! First question supplement: There is a sense of pain in the labia minora, which is not felt normally, but there is a clear sense of pain during sexual activity, and there is a stinging sensation after urination. How should it be treated? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your current situation falls into the recovery phase after childbirth. Some perineal lacerations are not a big problem, but they require a relatively long time to heal completely. For now, avoid spicy foods in your diet.
It is recommended to rest more after childbirth and avoid excessive activity. Pay attention to cleaning the external genital area and perineum with clean water daily. As long as there is no redness, swelling, pain, or purulent discharge from the wound, there is no major issue. You can also use warm water sitz baths daily to promote wound healing.
