Patient's question:
The anterior wall of the uterus has an uterine fibroid that has been discovered for over 2 years now, measuring 47×38mm: Could you please ask the doctor if this uterine fibroid can be treated with minimally invasive surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, cervical cysts are a type of chronic cervical inflammation, primarily characterized by an increase in vaginal discharge, which is mucopurulent in nature. The irritation from vaginal discharge can cause itching and burning sensations in the external genitalia, and symptoms such as intermenstrual bleeding or post-coital bleeding may also occur. Lower abdominal or lumbosacral pain may frequently appear, and pelvic pain or dysmenorrhea can occur in the pelvic area, often worsening during menstruation, defecation, or sexual intercourse.Recommendations: For scattered, small cervical glandular cysts, treatment is generally not required, and annual examinations are sufficient. For dense, small Nabothian cysts or larger cysts, physical treatments such as phototherapy, laser therapy, microwave therapy, or cryotherapy may be considered. For larger cysts that protrude from the surface of the cervix, electrocautery excision may be an option. Under long-term inflammatory stimulation, a small number of patients with chronic cervical inflammation may have a tendency toward malignancy, so close attention must still be maintained. Therefore, cervical cyst patients should undergo annual cervical smear tests to rule out cervical cancer and precancerous conditions.
In terms of treatment, the principle should be a combination of medication and physical therapy. Using highly effective anti-inflammatory medications while employing gynecological physical treatments such as gynecological microwaves, nanowaves, extracorporeal shortwave therapy, cervical spectral therapy, red light therapy devices, and direct medication application on the cervix can help eliminate inflammation and achieve both symptomatic and root-level treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid spicy, cold, or other irritating foods.
