Patient's question:
My lower abdomen has been very itchy recently, and I experience intermittent pain during urination. So, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor diagnosed me with vaginitis and mild cervical erosion in addition to that. I am quite mindful of hygiene. What should I do about vaginitis and mild cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis and mild cervical erosion are relatively common in gynecology, especially among women who have sexual activity. It is important to identify the specific type of vaginitis and then provide continuous treatment with liquid and topical medications for a week. If symptoms improve, the treatment can be extended by another week.For cervical erosion, if it is mild and does not show clinical symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. However, a cervical TCT test should be repeated once a year.
In fact, vaginitis is not something to be feared. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as treatment is sought early, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
