Patient's question:
The doctor asked me to undergo three consecutive days of physical therapy and intravenous infusion, with 600 per day, totaling 1800 for three days. After that, I still need to have radiofrequency ablation, which is said to cost around 2000. Is this price reasonable?Doctor's answer:
Western medicine primarily employs surgery, LEEP (loop electrosurgical excision procedure), cone biopsy, intravenous fluids, topical medications, and other anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and physical treatments. However, these methods not only fail to provide a complete cure but also, due to the long-term use of antibiotics, lead to the development of drug resistance, thereby increasing the difficulty of treatment. Surgical and physical treatments can also cause new psychological trauma. Therefore, proper treatment is essential to achieve a thorough cure.Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cervical erosion is primarily caused by blood and qi deficiency leading to damp-heat accumulation. Generally, conventional medications are difficult to (cure completely).
