Desired help: Hello, my wife has mild cervical erosion and needs surgery urgently? Can you give a plan?

Doctor's answer:

1. Western Medicine Treatment: Rinse the affected area with 0.1% povidone-iodine, then protect the vagina. Apply cotton swabs dipped in saturated chromic acid to the erosion area, remove the swabs after 1 minute, and disinfect with 75% alcohol swabs. Administer once a month after menstruation. Disadvantages: Only suitable for cases with small erosion areas and superficial inflammation infiltration. Primarily an external treatment.
2. Physical Therapy: Irradiate the erosion area with infrared light, causing a third-degree burn. The local tissue will coagulate, necrose, and slough off, forming non-inflammatory superficial ulcers. Granulation tissue will eventually grow, covered by new squamous epithelium to heal. Disadvantages: This method has side effects, postoperative vaginal discharge, and scab formation.
3. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment: Commonly used TCM preparations for this degree of cervical erosion include suppositories, oils, medicated membranes, and powders. Medications such as Zhimi Ling suppositories, Kangfuxiao Yan suppositories, and Wazu suppositories are convenient to use and well-accepted by patients. Disadvantages: Although relatively easy to treat, the efficacy is not very significant, making it both costly and labor-intensive.
