A small bump on the cervix

If a woman has a small tumor in her cervix, she must pay close attention to it. Because this could be a cervical polyp, but it could also be a cervical sarcoma. In the face of this situation, women should go to the hospital for a physical examination immediately, and then adopt different treatment plans based on the test results, so that the small balls can be removed. If women do not attach great importance to treatment, it may cause more serious cervical problems. Let’s take a look at what’s going on when there’s a small lump on the cervix.

What's going on when a small lump grows on my cervix?

Small bumps on the cervix can be caused by a variety of conditions, such as cervical polyps, which are thickening of the cervical mucosa and protrusion of the external cervical os, which can appear as cervical polyps. There are also cervical cysts, which are caused by obstruction of the opening of the cervical gland ducts, accumulation of glandular secretions in the glandular ducts, and expansion of the glandular ducts to form cysts, which protrude from the surface of the cervix and contain mucus. If the cervix is ​​torn during delivery, the scar will proliferate after sutures, and prominent small bumps will also occur. Exophytic cervical cancer can also produce growths on the surface of the cervix, which are brittle and easily bleed when touched. In addition, cervical surgery, such as cervical erosion surgery, can cause patients to develop Trichomonas vaginitis after surgery, which affects wound healing and causes the internal cervical opening to become unobstructed, resulting in surgical scar hyperplasia. Cervical infection with low-risk human papillomavirus can cause cervical condyloma acuminatum, which also mainly manifests as cervical growths. You need to go to the hospital for corresponding examination before making a diagnosis.

What should I do if I have a small pimple on my cervix?

If a woman has cervical polyps, she will have abnormal leucorrhea and bleeding symptoms. If a woman has these symptoms, she can undergo a colposcopy to determine whether the small lumps are polyps. After the diagnosis, the patient has no choice but to undergo surgery to remove the polyps.

During the surgical process, doctors usually use electrocautery or resection to remove polyps, and then use gauze or burning methods to help the patient activate blood circulation, so that the surgery can be completed. It should be noted that because cervical polyps are a relatively easy-to-recur disease, patients should also go to the hospital for regular physical examinations after recovery to ensure that polyps can be treated in time after they occur.

If a woman has cervical cancer, she will experience vaginal bleeding, lower abdominal pain, a large amount of pink secretions, difficulty in defecation, abnormal urination and other uncomfortable symptoms. If a woman has these symptoms, they can be diagnosed through hysteroscopy and tumor biopsy. Once diagnosed, patients can be treated with radiation and surgical therapies.
