A member asked:
When having a baby naturally, is there anything that can relieve the pain of ripping vaginal skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Child birth: This is precisely why an episiotomy is done. Depending on the size of the baby there is always a risk of the perineovaginal region - this may need to be repaired if its really bad.
