Patient's question:
It's been about a week since the symptoms started. My external genital area is very itchy. I had a cervical erosion surgery on August 30th. Previously, my external genital area never itched. Could this have been transmitted during the surgery? How should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
There is also a possibility of surgical infection, but if you go to a regular public hospital, the possibility is extremely low. Generally, regular public hospitals operate under relatively strict regulations, and their sterilization measures are often well-handled, making it highly unlikely for there to be any infection issues. You can go to the hospital for a check-up, and if necessary, have a vaginal discharge test to see if there are any fungal or trichomoniasis conditions. If needed, timely treatment can effectively resolve the issue. The daily treatment for patients with cervicitis mainly involves medication. Patients can take various oral medications and supplement them with many vitamins, while also paying attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoiding cold foods. We hope that patients with cervicitis can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
