Patient's question:
I had a microwave surgery for cervical inflammation on the 22nd of this month. Today, I went to the hospital for a follow-up check-up. At noon, the attending physician had already left work, so another doctor applied the medication for me. Since I forgot to bring my medical records back last time I had the surgery, I couldn’t find them today when I came for medication. The doctor applying the medication said I should come back on the 7th of next month to pay for it together. I’m a bit worried—did she apply the medication properly? It felt like it was just a quick wipe with a cotton swab. I’m not sure what kind of medication should be applied for the first time after microwave surgery.Doctor's answer:
Here is the English translation of the provided content, with line breaks preserved as instructed:1. One month of abstinence from sexual intercourse; prohibition of tub baths.
2. Some patients may experience mild dizziness, which usually improves the next day.
3. A small amount of pale yellow vaginal discharge may occur after surgery for the first week, decreasing after the second week; it typically resolves within two weeks.
4. Light bleeding may occur around 7 to 14 days after treatment. This does not require treatment unless the bleeding is as heavy as a menstrual period and is bright red, in which case medical attention should be sought for hemostasis.
5. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia; change underwear and sanitary pads frequently.
6. After cervical erosion surgery, adequate rest is recommended. Avoid staying up late and heavy physical labor. Eat fewer spicy foods.
