you should really try to get in with your gp or nurse to get checked out. even if you are healing well on the outside there is so much more to do on the inside. its really important not to overdo it because you can damage internal stitches/incisions and also increase the risk of prolapse too. dont do anything heavy for a few more weeks yet and then u need to build it up. the more you look after yourself now the better the long term outcome.
