Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old, for the past few months, I have been experiencing abdominal bloating and pain, and abnormal vaginal discharge with a bad odor, which has seriously affected my normal life. What are the symptoms of moderate cervical inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion is often caused by the irritation from sexual activity, so it generally occurs in women who have sexual activity. The main symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, which is thick and mucous or purulent in nature. Pain during intercourse and sometimes blood streaks in the discharge may also occur. Mild to moderate cervical erosion can usually be treated conservatively with suppositories. Severe cervical erosion is difficult to treat with medication alone and may require surgical intervention. If left untreated, there is a possibility of carcinogenic potential.
