Patient's question:
I have itching in my lower body, abnormal vaginal discharge with a bad odor, and sometimes lower abdominal pain. My friend has had surgery for cervical erosion several times, but it hasn't been cured.Doctor's answer:
Recurrent cervical erosion is often associated with childbirth, miscarriage, and postpartum infections. Additionally, surgical procedures or mechanical trauma to the cervix, such as injuries from sexual activity, can allow pathogens to penetrate and cause infection, leading to cervical erosion. Cervical erosion is more common in unmarried women, but in recent years, the number of married women experiencing recurrent cervical erosion has been gradually increasing. It is recommended to seek timely treatment. Simply using "antibiotics" or "cooling and dampness-reducing traditional Chinese medicine" for treatment only provides antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, allowing inflammation to persist and ultimately resulting in an inability to achieve a complete cure. A combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment will not lead to drug resistance and produces more significant therapeutic effects.
