Patient's question:
Female, 41 years old, recently discovered during a hospital check-up that she had cervical erosion of degree II. She is a bit worried, as it is said that this can be treated. She wants to ask what precautions should be taken after developing cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Currently, treatment methods mainly involve vaginal medications and physical therapies. Vaginal medications are often traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) or mixed preparations of TCM and antibiotics, which typically possess functions such as clearing heat, drying dampness, reducing swelling and pain, promoting blood circulation, and regenerating muscle tissue. They are non-invasive, easy to use, and well-understood by patients, making them particularly suitable for mild cervical erosion. However, for moderate to severe cervical erosion, medication treatment is often ineffective and time-consuming, with high costs. It is recommended to use physical methods for better therapeutic outcomes.
