Patient's question:
Can cervical erosion be treated with traditional Chinese medicine? Can it heal on its own? What is the best treatment?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion treatment 1. Drug treatment -- Suitable for patients with smaller erosion areas and superficial inflammation. 2. Physical treatment -- It is currently a widely used treatment method, with the advantages of a short course and good efficacy. It is suitable for patients with larger erosion areas and deeper inflammation. Common methods include electrocautery, laser therapy, and cryotherapy. If a woman with cervical erosion is not pregnant, it is recommended not to undergo physical treatment, as excessive treatment may sometimes leave permanent scars, which may lead to glandular self-locking, causing changes in cervical mucus and infertility; or it may cause difficulty in cervical dilation during labor. If the clinical symptoms are not significant, treatment can be deferred, and consideration can be given during labor.
