Episiotomy which came undone after a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time to see doctor: A surgical wound like an episiotomy is stitched together so that the two sides can easily heal back together. If it opens up instead of healing back together, the woman would need her doctor to examine the wound and see what to do next... to make sure she heals up properly.
