The episiotomy wound has exposed the thread

Choosing natural childbirth is a mode of delivery, that is, natural childbirth through the vagina. If the pregnant woman encounters unsatisfactory delivery during the process of natural childbirth, such as the fetus is too large to be delivered, the pregnant woman's vaginal opening is narrow, or the pregnant woman is an older woman, the doctor will decide whether to use the episiotomy method based on the specific situation of the pregnant woman. An episiotomy is a procedure in which an oblique incision is made in the vulva. Episiotomy is not a basic operation in natural childbirth, and not every pregnant woman needs an episiotomy. It is a decision made by the gynecologist after careful consideration.

So, what's the matter with the episiotomy wound showing the knot?

The cesarean section incision suture will naturally fall off. The cesarean section knot refers to the thread end left over from suturing the wound during a cesarean section. Generally speaking, there is one incision for a cesarean section, but there are two areas that need to be sutured, one is the uterus and the other is the abdominal cavity. The cesarean section incision sutures are mainly made with absorbable meat thread. Some mothers experience thread discharge reaction after giving birth. The body cannot absorb the sutures, and the knots in the subcutaneous tissue are discharged outside the abdominal skin, which is the thread knot we see.

What should I do if the episiotomy wound line is exposed?

After vaginal episiotomy, the wound is relatively large and needs to be sutured. If the one chosen cannot be done immediately, there will definitely be knots. The appearance of small meat particles indicates that there is a certain degree of inflammatory stimulation, which is generally related to one's own immune ability. You need to ask your doctor whether he uses suturing or non-suturing sutures. If there are small lumps of flesh, they are generally curable. You must also pay attention to hygiene and develop a good lifestyle.

Generally speaking, absorbable sutures will gradually be absorbed one week after surgery. It had been basically digested around January. However, some people are resistant to sutures and will gradually expel them from their body. The sutures of these people are not in harmony with the spleen and stomach, and some of them have not been digested and excreted even after a year.
