Patient's question:
Does cervical polyps always require surgical treatment? How is breast hyperplasia treated? How is pelvic effusion treated? How is it formed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, cervical polyps should be surgically removed as soon as they are discovered. The removal of cervical polyps is relatively simple. After disinfecting the vagina and cervix with povidone-iodine, use a hemostatic clamp to grasp the base of the polyp stalk and rotate it off. The surgery is painless. After the procedure, powder is applied to the wound, and cotton balls are used to compress it to reduce inflammation and stop bleeding. For larger polyps with thicker stalks, the stump can be cauterized after removal to stop bleeding. Polyps of any size that are removed should undergo pathological examination because cervical polyps have a 0.2% to 0.4% risk of malignancy. Although the risk is low, it should not be overlooked due to negligence. Additionally, even after the polyp is removed, the inflammation in the cervix has not been completely eliminated, so the polyp may recur. Patients need to undergo regular follow-up examinations.For breast hyperplasia, most people in China use traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and herbal treatments, while in foreign countries, hormone preparations and vitamin supplements are more commonly used. Surgical treatment may be necessary if other treatments are ineffective.
Examples of traditional Chinese medicine include:
- Xiaoyao pills
- Xiangfu pills
- Baizhen Yimu pills
- Xiaojin tablets
- Ruzhengning tablets
- Tiandansu tablets
Examples of Western medicine include:
1. Hormonal drugs, commonly used ones include: tamoxifen, bromocriptine.
2. Vitamin supplements, such as vitamin E, vitamin B1, and vitamin B6.
An ultrasound examination showing a fluid-filled area on the left side of the uterus suggests pelvic effusion, which is not a serious condition and there is no need to panic. Pelvic effusion refers to inflammatory exudate in the pelvic cavity, which can occur after endometrial inflammation. The slightly viscous fluid leaks from swollen endometrial cells and is gradually encapsulated by surrounding tissues, forming a cystic mass. If left untreated, it can grow larger. If it becomes too large...
