Can cervical erosion be cleaned with potassium permanganate using the Sitz bath method?

Patient's question:

Hello, can the use of potassium permanganate for cleaning be done through a sitz bath? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Cervical erosion-like changes, if accompanied by increased vaginal discharge, can be treated with local medication insertion based on gynecological examination and vaginal discharge test results. It is not recommended to use potassium permanganate solution for vaginal cleaning, as it may easily disrupt the vaginal acid-base balance, leading to vaginitis. After examination, follow medical advice for standardized treatment. You can use Yibao Liao, Xiaomi Liao, or Baofu Kang for insertion. During medication insertion, sexual activity should be avoided to prevent irritation.
