A member asked:
Are these postpartum episiotomy vaginal scabs normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely yes: After any cut (with stitches or not), the body heals...And that often means a scab. So unless you find it abnormal in another way, it's likely fine. But - ask your obgyn to check you - it will take 5 seconds and make you feel better. Good luck.
