Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for 40 days, but I often experience pain and discomfort in my vagina (the perineum was cut during childbirth), and the vaginal bleeding is always not clean. Why is this happening, and how can it be treated? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
According to your situation, it is recommended that you first check for any edema in your perineum. If there is edema, it may be caused by an infection at the perineal incision, which could lead to pain. It is advised that you maintain cleanliness of the external genital area and use povidone-iodine solution to disinfect the area daily to prevent infection. Additionally, keep the area dry and avoid moisture.
