What should I do if there is a faint red discharge with a fishy smell after a cervical erosion surgery?

Patient's question:

I had a surgery for cervical erosion degree three. The next day, my period came. It lasted for six days and then ended. I've been having a continuous flow of light red liquid from below, and it has a fishy smell. It's been one week after the surgery. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

After the cervical erosion surgery, there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding or blood-tinged discharge, which is also normal and there is no need to worry too much.
You should not have sexual intercourse within the first month after the surgery. Generally, cervical erosion surgery does not require such high costs. It is recommended that you visit a formal public hospital for follow-up to determine the recovery of your cervix. Pay attention to personal hygiene, and you can also take some anti-inflammatory medication yourself or buy some from a pharmacy.
