Reply to comment by TrustedAdult in A question on the history of perineal stitches after giving birth by Endorion
Is there a term for lacerations that happen inside the vagina during child birth? Is that part of the scale or not because it's not the perineum?

The biggest surprise was that Philadelphia translated means city of brotherly love. Wasn't sure where that nickname came from... Now it makes sense!

TrustedAdult, thank you for taking the time to put this information together. It's very insightful and extremely informative.
Some things referenced in your response I wasn't even familiar with, so I did some research and I'm now way more educated. Once again thanks.😊
