Treatment of chronic cervicitis

In our daily life, the uterus, as a reproductive organ unique to women, is often prone to chronic cervicitis due to many women's bad living habits and unhealthy sexual behaviors. Such a disease will not only cause certain pain to female friends, but also cause irregular menstruation. In order to make women's bodies healthier, timely treatment is required when diseases occur. Let's learn about the treatment methods of chronic cervicitis below.

Treatment of chronic cervicitis

Physical therapy

(1) Electrocogulation: This method is relatively simple and is suitable for cases with deeper erosion and larger erosion area.

After treatment, there will be vaginal discharge, which may be purulent and foul. Sexual intercourse should be avoided until the wound is completely healed, which takes about 6 weeks. Vaginal bleeding may sometimes be excessive, accounting for about 5%, and usually occurs about 2 weeks after electric ironing. If the bleeding is heavy, gauze can be used to pack and stop the bleeding.

(2) Cryotherapy: Cryotherapy has been applied in more than 10 provinces and cities in China. Cryotherapy uses refrigerants to quickly produce ultra-low temperatures, causing eroded tissue to freeze, necrotize, degenerate and fall off, and the wound surface is repaired through tissue repair to achieve the purpose of curing the disease.

(3) Laser therapy: Use CO2 laser to treat erosions, carbonizing and forming scabs in the eroded tissue. After the scabs fall off, the wound surface is covered by new epithelium. Zhang Miaomiao (1991) reported the use of laser to treat cervical erosion, with a cure rate of 73.4% and an effective rate of 97.9%.

(4) Microwave therapy: Microwave is a new type of physical therapy. When the microwave electrode touches the local diseased tissue, it instantly generates high heat in a very small area and achieves the purpose of coagulation. The treatment depth is the same as that of electric ironing. After the operation, the cervical wound is conical and 3 to 5 mm deep. After 11 weeks of treatment (8 to 12 weeks), the one-time cure rate reached 92.2% (142/154), which is higher than the one-time cure rate of 79.4% in the laser group (Song Xuehong 1994).

(5) Bohm lamp treatment: Bohm lamp therapy device is a new instrument for treating cervical erosion. It irradiates the erosion surface until it becomes a uniform grayish white. After the operation, antibiotics are used for 10 days, bathing in a tub is prohibited for 2 weeks, and sexual intercourse is prohibited for 1 month.

Drug treatment

(1) Vaginal flushing: You can use 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution to flush the vagina before applying the medicine.

(2) Topical medication:

① After vaginal douching, you can use a cotton swab dipped in 10% to 20% silver nitrate and apply it to the eroded surface. Apply the medicine once a week, 2 to 4 times per course of treatment. After applying the medicine, gently wipe the area with a cotton ball with physiological saline. This method is simple and suitable for grassroots units. Currently, this method is no longer used in larger hospitals.

② Potassium dichromate solution: This medicine is made by adding 5g potassium dichromate to 100ml sulfuric acid. The solution is a strong oxidant and corrosive astringent, which has the effect of sterilization and detumescence. Use a small cotton swab to dip the solution and apply it evenly to the eroded surface. The application range should exceed 0.5cm of the eroded surface. After applying the medicine, the eroded surface turns white. After 1 to 2 minutes, use 75% alcohol to wipe off the excess potassium dichromate solution on the surface of the cervix.

The above is an introduction to the treatment methods of chronic cervicitis. After understanding it, we know that there are many reasons for such symptoms. While treating it, we must also maintain good living habits. Especially women must pay more attention to their physical hygiene, eat light food, and eat less spicy and irritating food. This will have a good protective effect on girls' bodies.
