3 tips to manage vaginal tears during birth
Instead of wiping with toilet paper, try a wash bottle designed for postpartum care to help reduce stinging during urination.
To reduce perineal pain and swelling, turn to cold therapy. Apply a cold pack for up to 20 minutes at a time, allowing at least an hour between uses.
Soaking in a sitz bath and applying a cooling spray help relieve pain in the perineal area.
