Patient's question:
By chance, I carefully examined the chronic cervical inflammation (asymptomatic). Through colposcopy, it was diagnosed as moderate chronic cervical inflammation. The doctor prescribed three boxes of Baofukang suppositories. After using 8 of them, I stopped using them during the menstrual period. After the menstrual period ended, I used them diligently for two days. However, during those two days, I experienced severe lower back pain when I went to bed in the morning. What could be the reason for the lower back pain in the morning after using medication for moderate cervical inflammation?Doctor's answer:
The clinical manifestations of cervical inflammation are an increase in vaginal discharge. Acute cervical inflammation presents with purulent vaginal discharge, accompanied by lower abdominal and lumbosacral discomfort, or urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria. Chronic cervical inflammation is characterized by creamy, viscous, or yellowish-purulent vaginal discharge. In cases of severe cervical erosion or cervical polyps, the discharge may be bloody or lead to skin breakdown 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 infections. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treatment, which will not cause drug resistance and yields better therapeutic effects.
