Patient's question:
I used to have some miscarriages without pain and then developed vaginitis. Later, I didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a mild inflammation that could be treated with some medication. But a few days ago, I noticed that my induced secretions kept increasing, and when I went to the hospital for consultation, it was diagnosed as cervical erosion.Doctor's answer:
(1) Medication Treatment: For small erosion areas with superficial inflammation, the following medication treatment methods can be used:Potassium permanganate: Apply locally after menstruation, and repeat the medication once after 1–2 months. When using these medications, exercise caution to prevent burns to the surrounding vaginal walls. Additionally, ensure sterilization during application to prevent repeated transmission of infection.
(2) Physical Therapy: Used for larger erosion areas with deeper cervical erosion and inflammation.
① Electrocautery: Use a specially designed electrocautery device to burn the erosion tissue, causing it to become purulent and slough off. It is essential to achieve a certain depth for effective treatment.
② Cryotherapy: Use a specially designed rapid cooling device to freeze the inflamed tissue on the erosion area of the cervix.
