Tampons?

So my baby will be 3 wks old tomorrow and I've been using pads, but (sorry if tmi ahead of time) I have an ingrown hair right in the crease where your underwear are and the pad is irritating it and rubbing it raw. It's very sensitive. Would it be safe to use tampons at least so that could heal? I kno they say wait 6 wks at least but... Thanks in advance :)

I would say no too just because you don't want to hurt anything, plus you don't want to keep anything extra in there. You just have to deal. Try another pair of underwear too.

I would say no. You are still healing and letting everything get back together.
