Why is my uterus hurting?

For friends who feel a little pain in the uterus, they must be very worried that there will be problems with their uterus. So what is going on when the uterus feels a little painful? I believe many friends want to know the answer to this question. Next, this article will introduce to you what causes uterine pain. Friends who want to know more about this can take a look! Please see the detailed introduction below.

Why is my uterus a little painful? It may be caused by cervicitis. Cervicitis is one of the common gynecological diseases, including inflammation of the cervical vagina and inflammation of the cervical canal mucosa. Because the squamous epithelium of the vaginal part of the cervical canal is continuous with the squamous phase of the vagina, vaginal inflammation can cause inflammation of the vaginal part of the cervix. Since the cervical mucosal epithelium is a single-layer columnar epithelium, it has poor resistance to infection and is prone to infection. The most common clinical cervicitis is acute cervical mucositis. If acute cervicitis is not diagnosed and treated in time or the pathogen persists, it can lead to chronic cervicitis.

What should I do if my uterus hurts? If cervicitis is diagnosed, the treatment is as follows:

1. Acute cervicitis

The main treatment is antibiotics.

1. Empirical antibiotic treatment For patients with the following high-risk factors for sexually transmitted diseases (such as age under 25 years, multiple or new sexual partners, and unprotected sexual intercourse), empirical antibiotic treatment against Chlamydia is used before the results of pathogen testing are obtained.

2. Antibiotic treatment targeting pathogens For those who have acquired pathogens, choose antibiotics targeting pathogens. Since Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection is often accompanied by chlamydial infection, if it is gonococcal cervicitis, in addition to using anti-Neisseria gonorrhoeae drugs, anti-chlamydial infection drugs should also be used during treatment.

3. Treatment of sexual partners: If the pathogens of cervicitis patients are Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, their sexual partners should be examined and treated accordingly.

Different lesions are treated with different treatments. For patients who present with erosive changes, if it is asymptomatic physiological columnar epithelial ectopia, no treatment is required. For erosive changes accompanied by increased secretions, papillary hyperplasia or contact bleeding, local physical therapy can be given, including laser, freezing, microwave and other methods. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment can also be given or used as an auxiliary treatment before or after physical therapy. However, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer must be excluded by screening before treatment.

2. Chronic cervicitis

1. Chronic cervical mucositis For persistent cervical mucosal inflammation, it is necessary to understand whether there is reinfection with Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, whether the sexual partner has been treated, and whether the vaginal microbiome imbalance persists. Treatment is directed at the cause. For those whose pathogens are unclear and there is no effective treatment, physical therapy can be tried.

2. For cervical polyps, polypectomy is performed and the removed polyps are sent for pathological histological examination.

3. Cervical hypertrophy generally does not require treatment.

The above is an introduction to what causes uterine pain. From the above introduction, we can understand that a little pain in the uterus is likely caused by cervicitis. Therefore, once the symptom of a little pain in the uterus occurs, it is best to go to the hospital for examination so as to find the exact cause and get more accurate treatment.
