Clinical Trial Summary

This trial will be performed to compare the effectiveness of oral tramadol versus oral celecoxib for the management of perineal pain following episiotomy or perineal tear repair after spontaneous vaginal birth in obese women


Clinical Trial Description

Pain after episiotomy or tear of perineal tissues during childbirth is often inadequately treated and may be severe. Not only did perineal pain negatively affect the physical and mental functioning of the woman, but also it might decrease the success of breastfeeding and reduced her ability to care for her child. The methods of relieving perineal pain included medication and non-medication. When the perineal pain was mild, the most common analgesic used was acetaminophen. Whereas the perineal pain was more severe, other drugs had been chosen such as opioid, non-opioid, and a combination of both opioid and non-opioid analgesics ;
