Patient's question:
What are the symptoms when cervical inflammation occurs, and how should it be treated if it needs to be addressed?Doctor's answer:
The main symptom of chronic cervical inflammation is an increase in abnormal vaginal discharge, which can be creamy, mucous-like, pale yellow purulent, or bloody. The amount, color, odor, and consistency of the discharge are related to the pathogenic bacteria and the severity of the inflammation. If the inflammation spreads downward to the pelvic cavity, patients may experience lower abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea, and pain in the waist and sacral region. It is not advisable to take medication for a long time, as it may lead to drug resistance and dysbiosis, potentially causing more severe inflammatory infections. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, which will not cause drug resistance and yield better therapeutic effects. It is best to wear 100% cotton underwear and change laundry frequently to maintain external genital hygiene.
