Patient's question:
My sister has cervical erosion. A few days ago, when she went for a thorough examination, the test results showed that it had already developed into moderate cervical erosion. I told her to get treatment immediately, but she said that she had been diagnosed with cervical erosion before and had never paid attention to it or done anything about it. What are the harms of moderate cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
If there is cervical erosion, a cervical screening test needs to be performed. If there are no issues, simple erosion does not require treatment. Cervical erosion is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require surgery or medication for management. If there are abnormal vaginal discharges or vaginal inflammation, vaginal medication can be used for treatment. If there is skin breakdown during intercourse, it is best to undergo a colposcopy to examine the cervix for inflammation.
