Vaginal Tearing during sex

I think, but not really sure if this is where I should post this.  But I have some questions that I would like to have answers to.  Recently my boyfriend and I had sex for the first time.  He is umm kinda big.  And I haven't had it that big before.  Anyway, when we first started there was no problems for entry but it started hurting.  It wasn't too big of a deal.  Well now I have tears...in two or three locations on the outside of my vaginal area.  It hurts to move in anyway including going to the bathroom for obvious reasons since they are cuts.  But I was wondering what I should do?  The pain is unbearable.  Almost like when I had my son and I ended up with four tears.  Thanks.

i've always had this problem. i've recently had a full STI screening and am completely free of everything, including thrush and a UTI. I was with my ex for 15 months and after about 6 months i noticed that he'd cut me during intercourse, just one little cut, at the back of the "hole". since then, nearly every time I have sex the cut opens again, so i can't go all night or anything like that. after i've had sex once i can't for another few days. I've been with my current boyfriend for 14 months and i've noticed the same problem again, i get a cut that reopens. just the same tiny cut, not gettng any bigger but its very very sensitive and it's a pain, it puts me off of sex sometimes because i know its going to hurt after! can anyone suggest any natural healing remedies to promote healthier skin down there?

I went to the Doc for this problem, and she couldn't tell me whats wrong.  She said she thinks its Herpes 1, not genital herpes since i was negative for that.  She said she had no idea what the pain was from.  I am going to try the vitamen E.  I hope it works, because i miss having sex, its just way to painful for weeks after I do have it.  it *****!  thanks for your post

Well I had the same problem I thought the rip was in the process of healing to (itchy like) and when I peed it was burning like hell. I went to the doctor and she said its a little tear so it could just a little tear do you know where the tear is at?. My tears come for the opening of my vagina. So it might be there. Sometimes all ask my bf to see if the tear has healed but I think you need to get check first. Hope this help and don't worry this happens to everyone that has this issue not just you. : )

Last Friday, my boyfriend and I had sex, and during it I felt like something was ripping in me. I was in pain from the beginning, so we had to stop early. Several hours later, I went to use the bathroom and it burned and there was blood when I wiped. I have no idea what it could be. The bleeding has somewhat stopped, but today it was kind itchy like and uncomfortable. I don't know if it's a tear that's in the healing process, but I'm very very worried. For the record, my boyfriend and I are monogamous, we've been together a while, and we both have no STDs. I really need some advice please!

I had that too. I had to take off my underwear because it was iritating too much and then put on an ice pack. I was in tears, because I was so swollen from the tear. It will heal. My boyfriend went away to see his family for a week and it got better while he was gone, but it was still tender, so take a week off and take it slow after that until you feel better. Some suggest dabbing on some vitamin e oil as well :)
