episiotomy site problems AFTER sex

My cut had two internal and external stitches, and since healing the scar has been slightly raised at one tiny bit.

Anyway I'm today 6 weeks PP and last night DP and I DTD for the first time since birth. We used LOADS of lube (as I was so bloody nervous about things hurting) and took it slow. We did go for around half hour but I had to stop it as things started feeling a little uncomfy. Nothing major but I didn't want to push my body too far. Today I feel like I've been kicked down there and the whole side where the scar is feels bruised... I feel like I'm back to 1 week PP 😖

Is it just going to take time for my body to adjust to sex again or should I get the scar checked out? (Its never been checked by anyone other than me, it's definitely healed externally)

There was no actual pain during sex last night, things felt tight to start but then it was really enjoyable until the last minute or so where I started to feel uncomfortable.
