What is the treatment for cervical erosion?

Generally speaking, frequent or unclean sexual intercourse can easily cause women to suffer from cervical erosion. After suffering from this disease, most women will also experience symptoms such as difficulty urinating. Severe cases can also induce infertility. Therefore, the choice of treatment for cervical erosion becomes the most important thing that patients with cervical erosion need to pay attention to after becoming ill. Here are some methods to treat cervical erosion.

1. Drug treatment: suitable for patients with smaller erosion area and shallower inflammatory infiltration. Antibiotics can be used for local application, such as metronidazole, sulfonamides, furazolidone, etc. Traditional Chinese medicine is widely used in the clinical treatment of cervical erosion, and the effect is also good. Some proven prescriptions and formulas are often selected, processed into powders or suppositories, placed on cotton balls, and applied to the eroded surface.

2. Physical therapy: It is a widely used treatment method with the advantages of short treatment course and good efficacy. It is suitable for patients with larger erosion area and deeper inflammatory infiltration. Commonly used methods include electric ironing, laser therapy, and cryotherapy.

3. Traditional surgical treatment: If the above treatment is ineffective, or there is cervical hypertrophy, or the erosion is deep and wide, and involves the cervical canal, traditional surgical treatments such as total hysterectomy can be considered. However, surgical treatment is rarely used nowadays.

4. High-frequency LEEP technique: The tissue specimen is intact and is not prone to the phenomenon of tissue stretching and carbonization that occurs during traditional electric knife cutting. This allows for the acquisition of intact tissue specimens that do not affect pathological examination.

5. BBT ablation: BBT ablation is a very delicate surgery for the treatment of cervical erosion. It not only does not damage the surrounding tissues, but also is painless during the treatment and leaves no scars after the operation. It can also better avoid complications such as bleeding or infection, and has the advantage of not affecting reproductive function after the operation.

Normally, before treating cervical erosion, although there are many methods to choose from, for patients with cervical erosion, the choice needs to be individualized, and they should try to choose a treatment method that suits them according to their condition. Generally speaking, the most common treatments for cervical erosion are the five mentioned above.
