Why Is It Uncomfortable To Have Sex Post Episiotomy?

I had a baby seven months ago, had to have a episiotomy. Since then it is very uncomfortable for me to have intercourse. I had my husband look the other day and he said the only way to explain it is it looks like hemorrhoids. It sometimes feels like it tears when I move a certain way. I went back to my ob twice to have him clip what he called little ridges. I am wondering if he did something wrong and is not letting me know. Someone please help!!!

Hello
It is difficult to pinpoint what is wrong until I can see and examine. Cause can be due to episiotomy for sure or even secondary vaginismus is common.Hemorroids are present in anal canal, not vagina
