What is cervical erosion?

Patient's question:

I have been experiencing a lot of leukorrhea recently, and it also has a slight odor. When I mentioned this to a friend, she said it might be cervical erosion. She had this condition before, and it presented with similar symptoms, but it took a long time to treat. Hello, what exactly is cervical erosion?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion is the process of squamous epithelium replacing columnar epithelium. It is not a disease. Considering it is not a disease but a physiological phenomenon, however, cervical erosion is a risk factor for cervical cancer. If there is inflammation, it is recommended to adopt a combination of medication and physical therapy for treatment. Considering this is better, please always maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia, pay attention to sexual hygiene, and reduce the body's resistance in many aspects. In addition to timely treatment of cervical erosion, patient friends should always maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can patients receive timely and symptomatic treatment. At the same time, they should pay more attention to their dietary care and focus on balanced nutrition.
