2nd degree tear

Dear mummies, few days ago I gave birth and had a second degree tear. Please share your recovery period and what to look out for. I would like to know if there’s things I should take note about and how to do things better.

I ate painkillers, wore cooling pads and did sitz bath with epsom salt twice a day (about 20-30mins)! Took 2-3 weeks to fully recover.
