Patient's question:
Is it possible to use medication if the cervical polyp is too small to be surgically removed?Doctor's answer:
Small polyps can be removed with forceps, followed by slight compression to stop bleeding, or by placing a piece of gauze at the neck and removing it after 24 hours. For larger polyps with thicker stalks, the base can be cauterized after removal to stop bleeding. Although cervical polyps may be small, if not removed promptly, they can gradually grow and are prone to bleeding during sexual activity. It is recommended that you have the surgery to remove it at the hospital. This is just a minor procedure and will not be very painful.
