Patient's question:
Hello, I haven't been feeling well recently. I'd like to consult about this disease. What are the treatments for acute cervicitis?Doctor's answer:
Always maintain external genital hygiene, frequently use a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths, and change underwear often. After medication, sexual intercourse and tub baths are temporarily strictly prohibited. For those with excessive discharge, a 3%-4% baking soda solution can be used for cleaning. Potassium dichromate or 20%-40% silver nitrate can also be used.Physical therapy methods for treating cervicitis include electrocautery, cryotherapy, laser, and microwave therapy, among others. However, since the condition varies from patient to patient, the treatment methods may differ. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
