Take it slow n' easy: There are other forms of sex, you know. But if it is long healed, you should be okay. Use lots of proper lubricant, use condom, take it slow - stretch yourself step by step to avoid tears. Gentle, non sharp or too inflexible insertions only! If you really mean PTSD, take it extra slow to manage anxiety. Take care - have fun. Be safe!
