Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling uncomfortable downstairs. Every time I urinate, it aches a bit down there, and lately, my stomach has also been feeling a bit painful. Today, I went to see a gynecologist who told me I have vaginitis and moderate cervical erosion. What should I do with vaginal inflammation and moderate cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
You experience pain below when urinating, and your abdomen also aches. This condition is generally indicative of a urinary tract infection. However, a thorough examination revealed cervical erosion and vaginitis. It is recommended to use topical external medications, such as a liquid for cleaning the external genital area, and to insert vaginal suppositories at night for treatment. Oral antibiotics and some traditional Chinese medicine formulations that clear heat, remove dampness, and reduce inflammation can also be taken. Drink plenty of water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and always maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the external genital area. In fact, having vaginitis is not something to be afraid of. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treatment is administered accordingly, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
