Patient's question:
Just finished the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for treating cervical erosion. What else do I need to do for postoperative care? How many days will it take to recover?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, after the LEEP procedure for cervical erosion, phototherapy or similar treatments can be done to promote the complete recovery of the cervix. Generally, the treatment period is about 5 days. It is strictly prohibited to have sexual intercourse, pay attention to hygiene, get plenty of rest, and enhance nutrition. After treatment, follow-up examinations should be conducted regularly to closely monitor the healing and scar formation of the wound, and avoid sexual intercourse during menstruation. In addition to treating cervical erosion, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet and maintain a positive mood in daily life to enhance their physical fitness and slow down the recovery process.
