Patient's question:
My small abdomen always feels painful even during the period of not having Aunt Flo, a bit like menstrual cramps, and it's always bloated inside, just like when a person eats instant noodles and they expand inside. After a specific check-up, it was said that I had cervical erosion. How can cervical erosion be treated?Doctor's answer:
The general treatment methods for cervical erosion are primarily recommended to use physical therapy, which can be achieved through methods such as microwave, laser cryotherapy, or infrared light irradiation. It can be cured, but if it is more severe, surgical treatment with the LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure) is required. It is advised to undergo cervical cytology tests and specific human papillomavirus (HPV) tests to confirm the possibility of precancerous lesions. If there is suspicion of precancerous lesions, a cervical conization surgery may be necessary if needed.
