Patient's question:
I have been feeling very uncomfortable recently. My private area always has white discharge, and the itching symptom is becoming increasingly severe. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I found out it was chronic cervical inflammation. What kind of medication should be used to treat it?Doctor's answer:
Most patients with chronic cervicitis do not experience excessive symptoms again, only a small portion may have recurrent vaginal discharge, pale yellow, post-coital bleeding, or intermenstrual bleeding. Generally, when chronic cervicitis recurs, it increases vaginal secretions, which can cause itching. Due to different conditions, treatment methods also vary greatly. First, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough examination, and then receive symptomatic treatment based on the condition. Currently, physical therapy such as microwave, cryotherapy, or laser can be decided. Before treatment, it is necessary to rule out other conditions such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer, cervical hypertrophy which does not require treatment, and cervical polyps which need surgical removal.
