Patient's question:
Since having my child, I have actively responded to the community's call to get an IUD inserted. After that, I've been feeling discomfort down there frequently, an indescribable sensation. Sometimes the odor down there is quite strong, and if someone gets close to me, they can smell it. Also, I've had some discharge all along. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said I have chronic cervicitis. Do I need treatment?Doctor's answer:
Chronic cervical inflammation also requires treatment. Treatment typically involves oral administration of sensitive antibiotics or anesthesia, decoctions of Wan Dai Tang combined with Long Dan Xie Gan Tang, vaginal irrigation with Fufang Huangbai Liquid, Kangfuxin Liquid, etc., and vaginal suppositories such as Baofu Kang Suppositories. It is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia at all times, using pH 4 weakly acidic feminine care liquid to clean the area, and changing underwear frequently. After medication, sexual intercourse and tub baths should be strictly prohibited for a temporary period. In addition to timely treatment of cervical inflammation, patients should maintain a positive attitude towards the disease, as this can help reduce their immunity and strengthen their ability to combat the illness. At the same time, they should pay close attention to dietary care, focusing on light and nutritious foods while avoiding irritating and cold foods, believing that this will help drive away cervical inflammation.
