Painful intercourse 2 years after episiotomy..feels like being ripped again?

Possibly scar tissue: I'm not sure if you have had persistent pain or if this just started to occur. If it has been persistent pain for two years, the pain is often related to scar tissue. If it's recent pain it may be due to an inflammatory process or an infection. No matter what you should be evaluated by your obgyn.
