Granulated tissue

Hi everyone! I'm 8 weeks postpartum and recently found out I have some granulated tissue that's taking a while to heal. My provider mentioned the option of silver nitrate, but I wanted to check in and see if anyone here has experience with it. Did it help, and was it painful? Also, if anyone has any home remedies that worked for them, I'd love to hear! I’ve been doing sitz baths and tried witch hazel pads, but any other ideas are welcome.

What exactly is granulated tissue? 😢

Silver nitrate felt like a hundred bee stings 😭

@Jessica ouch!! Did it feel better afterwards tho?

I had granulation tissue treated with silver nitrate. The doctor used lidocaine to numb the area first, so I would ask for that! It only felt a little uncomfortable, definitely not painful. I felt 100 times better afterward. Before it would sting every time I went to the bathroom and now it feels totally normal!
