Types of Vaginal Trauma from Childbirth
Perineal tears are graded from first degree (minor skin tears) to fourth degree (extending into the rectal sphincter). First and second degree tears are very common and usually heal well with stitches.
Third and fourth degree tears require careful surgical repair and longer recovery. Episiotomy, a deliberate cut to widen the vaginal opening, can also lead to complications if not repaired properly.
Vaginal wall lacerations, cervical tears, and pelvic floor muscle damage may also occur during difficult deliveries.
Signs You Need Treatment
Pain during intercourse months after delivery is not normal and should be evaluated. Persistent perineal pain, a feeling of heaviness in the pelvis, and urinary or fecal incontinence are signs of incomplete healing.
Scar tissue from tears or episiotomy can cause tightness in one area and weakness in another. Some women develop granulation tissue that causes ongoing discomfort.
Treatment and Repair Options
Minor complications like granulation tissue can be treated in the clinic with silver nitrate application. Scar tissue that causes pain may respond to massage techniques or steroid injections.
Surgical repair is needed for poorly healed tears, fistulas (abnormal connections between organs), and significant pelvic floor damage. Perineal reconstruction restores the normal anatomy.
Pelvic floor physiotherapy strengthens weakened muscles and can resolve mild incontinence and prolapse symptoms without surgery.
