Patient's question:
Recently, my cervix has again shown signs of inflammation and discharge, which is very uncomfortable. Due to the irritation from the inflammatory discharge, the squamous cells outside the cervical canal have peeled off, leaving the surface very red and uneven. Is this a symptom of cervical inflammation? It’s really uncomfortable.Doctor's answer:
(1) It can lead to infertility. What are the hazards of cervical erosion? This disease, especially in moderate to severe cases of cervical erosion, causes a significant increase in cervical secretions, which are thick and contain a large number of white blood cells. This adversely affects sperm motility, hinders sperm from entering the uterine cavity, and impacts childbirth.(2) Cervical erosion can cause complications. After developing cervical erosion, it may lead to inflammation of other organs, such as: the pathogens of cervical erosion can descend to cause endometritis; they can spread through the paracervical ligaments and lymphatic vessels to bring about chronic pelvic inflammation; when inflammation affects the trigone area of the bladder, it can lead to urinary system diseases, resulting in symptoms such as dysuria, urinary frequency, or difficulty urinating.
