Pain(advice)

Hello everyone I’m a first time mom so I don’t really know much about how I’m supposed to feel after birth but I had just gave birth around a week ago and I’ve been feeling good like I had pain peeing but that’s gone… the issue is I had got stitches due to second degree tears and now ever since two days ago it feels like I have smt in the area where I pee…. It disappears when I sit down but sometimes when I stand up it feels like smt is shoved up there…. Is that normal? If so, is there anything I can do to make that discomfort disappear and for how long it last?…. Thank you
