How is cervical erosion treated?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor!
I am 22 years old. I had a routine vaginal discharge test, which showed one + for pus cells. I also had a Thin Prep Pap test, and the results were:
Cellularity greater than 40%
Presence of metaplastic cells
No pathogen infection
Diagnosis: Benign reactive changes (mild inflammation)
However, the doctor said my cervicitis is quite severe and needs physical therapy to improve. If it's not treated, there might be a risk of canceration. Is that correct? I

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, cervical erosion requires a TCT test to rule out cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. If you have not been pregnant, you can consider using medication. After a period of medication, regular follow-up is necessary to monitor the treatment effectiveness.
For the treatment of cervical erosion, physical methods such as electrocautery, cryotherapy, and laser therapy are commonly used at present, all of which have good efficacy. After surgery, it is important to change underwear frequently and maintain local cleanliness and dryness.
