Is cervical inflammation and cervical erosion the same condition?

Patient's question:

Is cervical inflammation and cervical erosion really a disease? In other words, does having cervical inflammation necessarily mean having erosion? Because I vaguely remember that when I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor said I had cervical inflammation but no erosion. Is this viewpoint correct? Additionally, hello, does cervical inflammation cause irregular menstruation? I often experience lower back pain, and sometimes my lower abdomen feels uncomfortable when the weather gets cold. Are these symptoms of cervical inflammation? Is cervical inflammation the cause of these symptoms?

Doctor's answer:

From your description, cervical inflammation and cervical erosion are not strictly speaking diseases, but these two conditions are related. Both cervical inflammation and cervical erosion are caused by inflammatory effects. If cervical inflammation is left untreated, it can develop into cervical erosion. Therefore, if you experience cervical inflammation again, it is important to treat it promptly to prevent the recurrence of cervical erosion. Additionally, cervical inflammation can affect your menstrual cycle. Your abdominal pain is also related to cervical inflammation and pelvic inflammation. The specific condition can be diagnosed through careful examination tools and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the uterine appendages. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, symptomatic treatment can be administered to effectively treat the condition.
