19 Years Old, Unilateral Labiaplasty, Virgin, Alone - New York, NY

So everything is going well. I had my follow up and everything was surprisingly going well considering all the things I did that I wasn't suppose to do. I was told I didn't need to apply Aquaphor anymore and just continue doing everything I usually do. I hope it can heal faster though. It's gradually becoming less swollen but it's taking a long time. But otherwise, I''m doing fine.

Day 6 was getting better. I had work today, the only placed the hurt were my feet. The surgery area was still itchy but otherwise, it was fine. It is still a bit swollen and I still applied Aquaphor after the shower but I stopped taking sitz baths. I walked a bit too much today but it was okay it didn't hurt or anything.

Today I was had already RSVP'd for my high school summer reunion with my friends. That meant I had to go out. My labia is doing great except it's still sensitive and it's doesn't seem to subsidized as fast as the first few days. I didn't apply Aquaphor in the morning but I applied it the night before. I went about my day in a t-shirt and shorts. The shorts were actually very uncomfortable, there were something about that that applied too much pressure and compression on the labia. I had to sit in certain positions so that I'll feel more comfortable. Otherwise it was fine with walking, but walking up and down the stairs were the same. Stairs also feel a bit uncomfortable. So I went to go eat sushi and karaoke and sitting was just horrible.

I came home and took a shower, and applied Aquaphor. But this time, the Aquaphor made my labia itch. I also didn't put a feminine napkin on my underwear tonight but otherwise, I think it's healing because most of my piercings start to heal when it itches. I know they're not the same type of skin but my skin healing processes delays.

Thank you. This post may not be clear because I typed this half asleep.
