I had the same thing for 11 months after DS1. I ended up going to a women's clinic and they prescribed me a pessary which you insert (a tablet, for about 2 weeks i think?), after this treatment i was pain free! It somehow helps to heal the scar tissue. Do try to look in to this as i had a tear and episiotomy, and stiches which were done improperly and caused the area to not heal, this treatment fixed it completely. Sorry i can't remember what it was called.
Hi I had painful scarring problems after my first birth, horrible multi-directional tear that continued to cause me pain for 18 months. Don't suffer in silence as there is plenty that can be done to help with these situations. I agree with the other ladies, you should be asking for a referral to a good gyno, but I'm also concerned that you don't have a good GP.
How to find a good GP? There should be a women's information or health service in your state. If you ring them, they should be able to provide you with a list of women GPs in your area that either specialise in women's health or are highly regarded by a large number of women. We move interstate quite frequently and this is how I have found all my good GPs.
