I delivered my son on march 11 of 2006. I had a very hard labor which involved forcepts due to my son being face up. Since the delivery, i have had shooting pains in my vaginal area which come and go. In between this, my vaginal area is completly numb. I am afraid there may be some nerve damage down there. There is absolutly NO feeling at all. I have also had problems holding my bladder. Its not even like it feels asleep, there is just nothing, no feeling. My husband and i talked to my O.B. and all she recommended was pelvic floor therapy. Does this even work?? Has this ever happened to anyone else? How often does this happen?? I have been unable to find any information about this 'numbness' on the internet. Please help me, thank you.
