Patient's question:
Hello, I have cervical inflammation with abnormal white discharge color and odor, and the white discharge has blood streaks. What is this disease?Doctor's answer:
When the cervix is infected, it constitutes cervical inflammation, one of the common and frequently occurring gynecological diseases among women of childbearing age. It is divided into acute and chronic types. Clinical diagnosis is more common with chronic cervical inflammation, with the main symptoms increased vaginal discharge, which is milky white, mucous-like, or mixed with blood streaks, or bleeding during intercourse, accompanied by vulvar itching, lumbosacral pain, and milder menstrual periods. Chronic cervical inflammation is often caused by inadequate treatment of acute cervical inflammation, with pathogens hiding within the cervical mucosa, leading to chronic inflammation. Its local manifestations include various forms, such as cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, endocervicitis, cervical glandular cysts, cervical laceration, and eversion, among which cervical erosion is the most common.
