About Granulation Tissue Surgery

Granulation tissue surgery, performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, is a minor surgical procedure to remove excessive granulation tissue (proud flesh) that can form during the healing process, particularly after childbirth (e.g., on an episiotomy or perineal tear site) or following gynecological surgeries like hysterectomy. This overgrowth of fragile, red, bumpy tissue can cause persistent bleeding, discharge, pain, and discomfort, delaying proper healing. The procedure, often done in an outpatient setting, involves precise excision or cauterization (using silver nitrate or electrical cautery) of the abnormal tissue to promote the growth of healthy skin and complete the healing process. It is a quick, effective solution to resolve chronic post-operative symptoms and restore comfort.

PATIENT REVIEW

Reyansh Khan, 34, is a software...

Reyansh Khan, 34, is a software engineer and a new father. His wife, Priya, had a traumatic emergency C-section six months ago. While Priya recovered well initially, she developed persistent, watery, foul-smelling discharge and a dull ache at the surgical site. Intimacy became painful, and she was deeply self-conscious. Their OB-GYN, Dr. Mehta, diagnosed a large, inflamed area of granulation tissue (proud flesh) at the top of her C-section scar, a common but distressing complication where healing tissue overgrows. Dr. Mehta recommended minor surgery to cauterize the tissue with silver nitrate, explaining it was quick and would resolve the symptoms. During the in-office procedure, Priya felt only a brief, mild sting. Within a week, the discharge stopped and the tenderness faded. Emotionally, Reyansh felt helpless watching his wife struggle post-childbirth. After the procedure, he felt immense relief and gratitude that this final hurdle to her full recovery was cleared, allowing them to focus on their joy as a new family.
