Patient's question:
Symptom Description: There is peeling after intercourse, but the amount is not much. Last week, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said there was a cervical polyp, but did not specify how to treat it, just said to wait and see. However, I am a bit worried. Is a cervical polyp urgent?Doctor's answer:
Although the possibility of cervical polyps becoming cancerous is very small, there is still a potential for it. Therefore, patients should pay extra attention to cervical polyps. The current treatment for cervical polyps is primarily surgical removal. If the patient has concurrent inflammation, the infection needs to be controlled; if the skin condition is severe, topical medication should be used first. The doctor advises you to pay close attention, so you should promptly return to the hospital for follow-up to monitor the progression of the disease, and then decide on an appropriate treatment plan based on the doctor's recommendations. When patients face cervical polyps, we should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and avoid delaying medical consultation. If the cervical polyps do not improve with treatment, a new treatment plan should be implemented in a timely manner.
