Excess scar tissue

Anyone have experience with excess scar tissue pp? I had a second degree tear which healed with no problems, but now I have some excess scar tissue in my vagina where the tear was. It's not painful, but I can feel it's there. Waiting for a referral to get it removed, anyone have experience of this? I can see it's quite common in women who have had episiotomies but can't see much for tears!

Is it granulated tissue? I had mine burned off with silver nitrate sticks. I also had a 2nd degree tear

What does it mean if it's granulated?

Mine was raised and very sore

No it's not sore, just extra tissue that's appeared at the r trance to my vagina.
