Hi thanks for your question.
Small vaginal tears are common during normal delivery and you also had one which was stiched.
This extra skin tag could be either due to improper stiching or improper healing of wound.
If it is bothering you,consult your gynaecologist and get it removed.
It is very small procedure can be done under local anaesthesia and it will take few minutes and you will be back home same day.
Hope this answers your question.
