Does cervical hypertrophy need to be treated in the hospital?

Patient's question:

A woman is 26 years old this year. In recent days, when washing her underwear, she has always found a lot of curd-like secretions on it, and they smell very unpleasant. She also feels her private area is damp and itchy, and her lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Please ask: Does cervical hypertrophy need treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical hyperplasia is a type of chronic cervical inflammation. It is caused by inflammatory changes in the cervical mucosa due to pathogen transmission. In general, cervical hyperplasia, especially mild cases, does not require special treatment. If there is erosion, cervical erosion can be treated. Daily attention should be paid to personal hygiene, maintaining external genital cleanliness and dryness, changing underwear frequently, using dedicated external genital utensils, and boiling washing used underwear, towels, and basins. Exposure to sunlight is preferred over flipping for drying. When visiting public places such as public restrooms, swimming pools, and bathtubs, it is important to take precautions against cross-infection.
