Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old. I have been menopausal for the past two years, but recently I have been experiencing severe itching in the external genitalia and around the vaginal opening, and the odor of my discharge is also very strong. Please ask: How can the treatment for severe cervical inflammation be effective?Doctor's answer:
Cervicitis can be treated with laser therapy. Laser therapy is a high-temperature treatment method for cervicitis, primarily causing the chaotic tissue to carbonize and form a scab. After the scab falls off, the wound is covered with newly formed squamous epithelium. Chronic cervicitis treatment generally uses a carbon dioxide laser, which is a common method for treating cervicitis.The electrocoagulation method exposes the female cervix with a vaginal speculum, touching the electrocautery tip to the erosion surface and evenly cauterizing, with the range slightly lower than the erosion surface.
During cervicitis treatment, it is essential to maintain clean external genitalia, frequently bathe with potassium permanganate solution, change underwear often, and temporarily strictly prohibit sexual intercourse and tub baths after medication. For those with excessive mucus, soda water can be used for cleaning, and potassium dichromate or silver nitrate can also be applied.
Physical therapy methods include electrocautery, cryotherapy, laser, microwave, and other treatments.
