Patient's question:
I've been feeling itchy down there lately, and my discharge is also abnormal, especially very smelly. I can smell it even while sitting. I went to the hospital for a check-up and found out it's moderate cervical inflammation. How should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
There are many treatments for cervical erosion, and the appropriate method can be determined based on the degree of erosion. The main methods are as follows:(1) Medication treatment: For small erosion areas with relatively superficial inflammation, the following medication treatments can be used:
① 10–20% silver nitrate: Topical application, once a week, with 2–4 applications per course.
② Potassium permanganate: Local application after menstruation, followed by a repeat application after 1–2 months.
(2) Physical treatment: Used for larger erosion areas with deeper inflammation.
① Electrocautery.
② Cryotherapy.
③ Laser treatment.
④ KS instrument treatment.
