Granular Tissue - 2nd degree tear

M

I went in for my 6weeks PP appointment this past Thursday and discovered that I am still not healed properly down there. I had a 2nd degree tear (midwives said it was a messy tear, in a variety of different directions, so it was tough to stitch up 🤦🏽‍♀️). I have been quite uncomfortable - sitting, walking, still can’t wipe, using Peri bottle, still have bleeding etc- so I had a feeling I wasn’t healed correctly.

Anyways, at my appointment, midwife said all the stitches have healed but there is an area of granular tissue (basically raw tissue that is never healing), I think on my vaginal wall (??), and that is continuing to cause my pain and irritation and bleeding. She also said like only 2 in 200 of her patients, including me, have had this in the past year. I am getting referred to an OBGYN now.

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and what was done to correct it? (And any ideas on how this happened?!)
