I think it might be worth getting looked at? After I had my first bub, I should have been stitched, but they couldn't find the doctor to do it so after a hot shower, the bleeding had slowed and the midwife took a look and thought that the tears should heal up nicely by themselves. (I had grazes on my labia as well). Well, it didn't heal up nicely. I ended up with a completely fused labia - my opening was about the size of a 5 year old girls My GP thought she could fix it 3 times, but each time she was wrong...she just simply used a speculum (for doing pap smears) and tore me back open, then gave me oestrogen cream to put on the wounds to keep it from re-sealing. Eventually I had to be referred back to the hospital to see a surgeon...who had to perform an operation and do a repair. After healing up properly, I had a ridge of scar tissue that made DTD uncomfortable and even painful....and even now, 7.5 years on, different positions etc can be slightly uncomfortable. But continual massage (as painful as it was) and just DTD, even if it was a bit painful, did eventually help. But if it's worrying you, go and see a doc and get another opinion - you might be a candidate for a repair, or they might be able to give you some other advice based on what they see
