Why can't cervical erosion be found by color Doppler ultrasound?

Patient's question:

Vaginal bleeding, vulvar itching, did an ultrasound but it didn't mention any discharge.

Doctor's answer:

Ultrasound, also known as B, is used to carefully examine the pelvic organs to check for inflammation or the presence of fibroids and cysts. However, cervical erosion and polyps cannot be detected through ultrasound alone. This requires a combination of gynecological examinations and colposcopy to confirm.
It is recommended to:
1. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
2. Use warm water to clean the external genital area and maintain local hygiene.
3. Wash underwear separately and expose it to sunlight or boil it to ensure thorough disinfection.
Additionally, during treatment for cervical erosion, the patient's dietary habits and care are also crucial. Rest is essential, and light activity is allowed to prevent unnecessary harm. I hope the above information helps you. Thank you.
