Is cervical erosion difficult to treat?

Patient's question:

My lower body has been uncomfortable recently, and I've had a persistent stinging burning sensation. Sometimes it also itches. Additionally, my discharge has increased and has a bad odor. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they said I have second-degree cervical erosion. I want to know if this second-degree cervical erosion is difficult to treat?

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion is divided into three degrees, and it has now reached degree two, indicating that the inflammation is relatively significant. For cervical erosion, there is a possibility of cancer, so it is first necessary to undergo a cervical TCT test to rule out the possibility of precancerous lesions. The treatment for this condition is primarily through physical therapy, which can achieve the goal of self-healing. However, since this disease is prone to recurrence, it can sometimes be (repeated) in nature. Under the guidance of a doctor, methods such as microwave, laser, and cryotherapy can be adopted. If necessary, surgical treatment with the LEEP (Laser Endoscopic Excisional Procedure) can be considered.
