    I had a long knotted stitch come away at four weeks, and think that things sort of dropped into position, instead of being held up high.

    Vagina seemed to be more swollen at sides, and yes I can now feel the ridge at the back where I have been stitched. I wouldn't worry, it just feels like the healing process is progressing, albeit slowly.

      I try not too worry but my bowels have been a total pain as well which hasn't helped but I suppose it's getting used to everything up where it belongs

      Yes, I thought all my bowel problems would disappear but they haven't yet, I'm using lactulose and dulcalax every day, and eating fibre, but am having the same problems as before, either too often and sore, or can't go and piles play up, sore whatever I do.

      It's a different set of muscles and it's hard to push the right way, after all the years of struggling.
