Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a health check-up a few days ago. The results showed that I had cervical polyps after a thorough examination. My family was very worried, and I was also very upset. They prepared to have me undergo surgery, but my leave time cannot be too long.Do I need to be hospitalized for cervical polyp surgery?
Doctor's answer:
Cervical polyps generally do not require hospitalization and can be treated in an outpatient setting. Based on your description, you should first not be anxious. Cervical polyps are usually benign, and the likelihood of malignancy is very low. If the polyp is small, you can go home after the procedure. Postoperatively, pay attention to rest, maintain a balanced diet, and take care of hygiene. Keep the external genitalia clean, change underwear frequently, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
