Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing pain in my lower abdomen and soreness in my waist, and my private area has been very uncomfortable, with itching and burning, especially in the afternoon. It's really unbearable. I'd like to ask: What is the most effective way to treat cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
(1) Medication Treatment: For small erosion areas with superficial inflammation, the following medication treatment methods can be used:① 10–20% silver nitrate: Apply locally once a week, with 2–4 applications constituting one course.
② Potassium permanganate: Apply locally after menstruation, and repeat the medication once after 1–2 months. When using these medications, exercise caution to prevent burns to the surrounding vaginal wall, and ensure sterile application to prevent reinfection.
(2) Physical Treatment: Used for larger erosion areas with deeper cervical erosion and inflammation.
① Electrocautery: Use a specially designed electrocautery device to burn the erosion tissue, causing it to become purulent and slough off. The treatment should reach a certain depth for optimal results.
② Cryotherapy: Use a specially designed rapid cooling device to freeze the inflammatory tissue of the cervical erosion, causing it to become purulent and slough off.
