Patient's question:
The doctor said that if the mild erosion is not treated, the condition will worsen. I would like to know the specifics.Doctor's answer:
The most commonly used method for grading cervical erosion is based on the size of the erosion area, which can be divided into three degrees: mild, moderate, and severe. When the erosion area is less than one-third of the entire cervical area, it is classified as mild cervical erosion. If the erosion area occupies one-third to two-thirds of the cervical area, it is considered moderate erosion. When the erosion area covers more than two-thirds of the entire cervical area, it is classified as severe erosion. During clinical examinations, attention should not only be paid to the size of the erosion area but also to its type, whether it is simple, granular, or papillary.
