What Is The Numbness In My Thigh After Sex?

I had my baby exactly 6 weeks ago & recently had intercourse for the first time since & ever since then my upper right thigh is numb. I can walk on it and feel it but when I touch it it feels numb & weird. It had now been almost 24 hours. Should I be concerned? What is wrong?

Hello
I don't know how was the labour process- a normal delivery or CS or Forceps Assisted.Labour can cause some edema and stretching of perineal muscles. but all these things return to normal level after 6 weeks. If your problem continue for more than 3-4 days, get yourself checked. Start morning walk and mild stretching to loosen the muscles.
