Episiotomy scar tissue :(

Hello.
has anyone had any lingering scarring and / or granulation tissue at the sight of an episiotmy following childbirth?
my kid is years and year old… about 6 months after giving birth I was told i had granulation tissue / scar tissue grown over the episiotmy wound. It’s a little lumpy excessive bit of skin. I was told the only option would be removal via surgery and that it would likely scar and heal in the same way, so I just left it! Fast forward another pregnancy and I had similar experience but the other side of my vagina. Now I have a bumpy little ugly V.

it looks like silver nitrate could be an option. To remove it.

I have GP appointment soon,

has anyone had this? And had silver nitrate? Or surgery? Or just live with it?

thanks in advance for kindness on what’s an embarrassing topic,
