Patient's question:
Female, 32 years old, my menstrual cycle has always been irregular. I never took it seriously before, but recently I noticed that my vaginal discharge has been increasing and there's a foul odor. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told it's cervical erosion. How should I treat cervical erosion grade 1 and vaginal cleanliness degree 4?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion does not require treatment; it is a normal physiological phenomenon. With a vaginal cleanliness of degree 4, it is recommended to promptly administer medication vaginally to alleviate symptoms. Further examination is needed to confirm the type of vaginitis for targeted treatment.In daily life, personal hygiene should be maintained, with frequent changes of underwear. The external genitalia should be cleaned with warm water or mild salt water. A light diet should be followed, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. During treatment, sexual activity is strictly prohibited, and regular follow-up visits to the hospital are necessary.
