Patient's question:
My aunt has had cervical inflammation for two years and has undergone thorough examinations every year. Currently, it is moderate cervical inflammation, and the doctor recommends physical treatment, but suggests doing a cervical scraping test before treatment. Is a cervical scraping test mandatory before physical treatment for moderate cervical inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Follow the doctor's advice to implement careful examination and treatment. The Pap smear is used for widespread screening of cervical cells to determine if there are any malignant lesions. The best time to perform a Pap smear is 3-7 days after the menstrual period ends. If there is vaginitis, cervicitis, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, bleeding may occur. Under modern medical conditions, it is recommended to have a gynecological examination once a year to check for any abnormalities in the uterine appendages and the cervix. Pay special attention to the screening of cervical cells, and address any problems promptly.
