Sensitive frenulum and labia nearly 9 months post-op. Feeling like this is permanent - is this normal?

November 29, 2021

Is it normal to have very sensitive frenulum knobs this far post op? Also, my labia still hurt when direct pressure is applied. Healing has been a wreck and on top of that it's not aesthetically pleasing. I'm not sure if I will have permanent pain/extreme sensitivity down there. I'm fine if i'm casually walking, sitting, etc, but if anything rubs on it too hard or even when I wipe, it hurts. I talked to my OBGYN and she said that labiaplasties can result in permanent swelling and pain.
