Old episiotomy tear
I am 46, and my 2nd episiotomy scar tor 2 stitches after my second child – went back to the government hospital and told them, but the doctor had a look and told me nothing was wrong. I slunk away, and never went back.
Sex aggravates the join where the scar tore – it pulls. I want it fixed because it bothers me, really bothers me. Is this feasible? What does it involve?
I am an incest survivor, so had vaginal scarring to begin with, and 3 yars after my second child was born I couldn’t urinate at all and had a bladder op to fix it – any connection to the two above points?
Yours faithfully

The episiotomy scar can be excised and resutured. The urinary problem does not sound related to your present problems.
