Dryness...: ...And thinning of your vaginal tissue the likely cause. Have your OB check you.

Still healing: 1. Call your doctor. Be checked...There may be a physical problem. 2. Look for a physical therapist who is experienced in pelcvc floor muscles. 3. Acupuncture (not there!) and chinese medicine can also improve the healing process and alleviate the pain. 4. Homeopathic arnica and hypericum may also provide some improvement.
