There is granulation tissue in the wound after normal delivery

Because during delivery, when the baby comes out of the vulva, it often causes tearing of the vulva and vulva. If the vulva is relatively small, an episiotomy may also occur at this time. Therefore, after giving birth, most pregnant women have obvious wounds, so they need to be cleaned and cared for at this time. It is generally recommended to use spinulosa bark wash solution with water or povidone iodine solution to clean the wound every morning, noon and evening, and the lochia in the vulva must be thoroughly cleaned every time. For pregnant women with poor absorption of sutures after childbirth, it is necessary to bathe with 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution.

After a natural childbirth, both the wound caused by natural tear and the wound caused by episiotomy need to be sutured surgically. Generally, the stitches are removed about three days after giving birth, which means the wound has healed. However, it takes some time for the sutures to digest and absorb the cysts after surgery. After hospitalization, you should increase your nutrition. You can consider eating more lean meat, eggs, milk, fresh fruits and vegetables, and pay attention to local hygiene. Pregnant women should also get out of bed and do some exercise to promote blood circulation, which is also beneficial for wound healing.

If you choose to give birth naturally without making a perineal incision, generally there will be a tear in the perineum when the fetus is delivered in the head position. Mild lacerations may not require sutures. Severe lacerations with heavy bleeding may require surgical sutures to activate blood circulation. If there are external sutures, you can disinfect the wound with iodine and then remove the stitches surgically 3 to 5 days after giving birth. At this time, the wound will have healed. However, it usually takes several months for the wound tissue muscles to grow together with other surrounding tissues and soften to the same level as other tissues. During this period, pay attention to hygiene and keep the perineum clean.

The wound is itchy after a normal delivery. If there is no exudate from the wound, or there is bleeding or pain at this time, it is often considered that the itching is caused by the repair of nerve tissue in the wound after a normal delivery. It is a normal physiological phenomenon. Generally, this kind of itchy wound symptoms can naturally improve in about ten days. However, if the itching is caused by the sutures on the wound after normal delivery not being completely absorbed, or by infection of the wound, the wound healing time may take about a week.
