Patient's question:
Hello, recently my external vagina was itchy and had a lot of discharge. I took medicine for two days, but the itching still persists. I also used a wash, but yesterday when I went to the hospital for a vaginal check-up, the lab tests showed no inflammation. They said my cervix has severe erosion, and it bleeds when touched. They recommended I have a coagulation knife procedure. I don’t want to do that; can I just use medication instead? My friend suggested using sea buckthorn seed oil suppositories, will that help? My friend who had the coagulation knife procedure had a very slow recovery. Now I’m not sure what to do. Yesterday when I came back from the hospital, they didn’t give me any medication.Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion, for mild cervical erosion with less severe symptoms, medication therapy is generally used; while for moderate cervical erosion, physical therapy is adopted. For severe cervical erosion with more severe symptoms, clinical doctors often choose physical treatment, surgical therapy, or a combination of multiple therapies. However, when inflammation has occurred, with increased leukorrhea or recurrent irregular bleeding, vaginal irrigation with Jieryin, the use of antibiotic-containing vaginal suppositories such as Xiaomi Suppository, and methods like electrocautery or cryotherapy for the erosion area can be used for treatment.
