Patient's question:
Currently, I don't feel anything, just that the menstrual blood is a reddish color with a hint of black. The amount of menstrual flow is the same as usual, and the menstrual period is normal. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
The clinical manifestations of cervical inflammation include an increase in vaginal discharge. Acute cervical inflammation presents with purulent vaginal discharge, accompanied by lower abdominal and lumbosacral pain, or urinary frequency. Chronic cervical inflammation, on the other hand, presents with creamy, viscous, or yellowish-purulent vaginal discharge. In cases of severe cervical erosion or cervical polyps, the vaginal discharge may be bloody or may cause tearing after sexual intercourse.It is not advisable to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a long period, as this can 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 for treatment, which will not cause drug resistance and will yield better therapeutic effects. Maintaining good personal hygiene habits is essential—keep the external genitalia and vagina clean at all times, and practice moderate sexual activity for couples. Avoid inappropriate vaginal douching.
