What general tests are usually required for cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

Got cervical erosion, what tests do you need to do? Recently, I've been feeling lower abdominal pain and lower back pain, and my private area has been very uncomfortable, itchy, and burning. Especially in the afternoon, it's really unbearable.

Doctor's answer:

I. Gynecological Examination. This examination primarily focuses on assessing the size, shape, texture, and canal width of the cervix, as well as detecting any contact bleeding. Additionally, it examines the external genitalia, vagina, uterus, and surrounding tissues, including the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
II. Colposcopy. Colposcopy can detect inflammation that is not visible to the naked eye, and taking biopsies from hidden areas during the examination can improve the accuracy of the biopsy.
III. Pap Smear Examination. This is a routine gynecological examination that is cost-effective, simple, and easy to perform. It is also an essential diagnostic test and a primary screening method for population health and anti-aging.
