How to do HPV biopsy

HPV virus is a viral infection with a very high morbidity rate, especially for women over 30 years old, who have a higher probability of being infected with HPV. Once infected with the HPV virus, it will not only cause low immunity, but also the possibility of cervical cancer, which is very serious for the patient. Therefore, a puncture biopsy should be done in time to determine whether it is infected with HPV and the actual type of virus. But for some patients who are in too much pain, they want to know whether the HPV puncture biopsy will be painful?

How to do HPV biopsy

First of all, whether it is an HPV puncture biopsy or a puncture biopsy at another location, most puncture biopsies will be painful. It's just that with the different types of HPV puncture biopsy and the different HPV anesthetics used, the pain caused to the patient will also be different. If you are doing a physical examination, the pain is relatively less. However, if a traditional puncture biopsy or cervical smear test is done, women will undoubtedly feel some pain after the anesthesia period has passed.

Secondly, because the HPV virus is more harmful, a puncture biopsy is required. For example, secretion test or cervical smear test is a relatively advanced puncture biopsy technology at present, but it will also cause some pain. In some large cities where medical technology is relatively backward, traditional cervical episiotomy is still used for examination, and the pain caused will be more obvious.

Finally, once HPV infection is detected, it needs to be taken seriously. Because HPV infection is divided into high-risk and low-risk, the symptoms of high-risk HPV are not very obvious, but the carcinogens are very strong, especially cervical cancer, the symptom of which is HPV infection. Low-risk HPV is a sexually transmitted disease, so it needs to be taken more seriously.

Finally, the editor would like to remind many HPV patients that for HPV biopsy and treatment, it is best to find an experienced doctor to do the biopsy, which can also reduce some of the pain of the biopsy.
