Patient's question:
Female, 30 years old, for these past few months, I've been experiencing abdominal bloating and pain, and my vaginal discharge has been abnormal with a foul odor, which has seriously affected my normal life. What are the characteristics of cervical inflammation?Doctor's answer:
1. Acute cervicitis with increased leukorrhea, purulent in nature, accompanied by lower back pain and lower abdominal discomfort.2. Chronic cervicitis with excessive leukorrhea, creamy in color, mucous in consistency, or leukorrhea mixed with blood streaks, or postcoital bleeding, accompanied by vulvar itching, lumbosacral pain, and severe symptoms during menstruation.
Physical therapy is currently a widely used treatment method, offering the advantages of a short course and good efficacy. It is suitable for cases with more severe inflammation and deeper tissue involvement. Common techniques include electrocoagulation, laser treatment, or cryotherapy. However, the disadvantage is a high recurrence rate.
