Does an episiotomy during childbirth injure the bladder nerves?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After the perineum of a woman is torn during childbirth, the edges of her wound are very irregular. This not only prolongs the healing time of the perineal wound but also makes it very easy to form scars after healing. As a result, the woman may experience a foreign body sensation during sexual activity after childbirth. Therefore, if a perineal episiotomy is performed promptly during childbirth, it can avoid the occurrence of the above situations.
