Nowadays, women are under great pressure in life. They not only have to take care of work, but also their lives. Most women suffer from gynecological diseases, and chronic cervicitis is a common one. It mostly occurs in women between 30 and 40 years old. During this period, women's bodies gradually weaken and they are very susceptible to bacterial and fungal infections. After suffering from this disease, the cells will be hollowed out, the amount of leucorrhea will increase, and symptoms such as headaches will appear. Chronic cervicitis is the most common gynecological disease. It is more common in multiparous women. The main clinical manifestations are increased leucorrhea, which is milky white or slightly yellow, or sticky and purulent, and sometimes bloody or mixed with blood. It is usually not difficult to diagnose through gynecological examination. Local manifestations of the cervix include cervical hypertrophy, endocervicitis, cervical glandular cysts and cervical squamous metaplasia. Causes It is often due to incomplete treatment of acute cervicitis, and pathogens hide in the cervical mucosa to form chronic inflammation. It is more common after delivery, miscarriage or surgical injury to the cervix, when pathogens invade and cause infection. The pathogens of chronic cervicitis are mainly Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli and anaerobic bacteria. Currently, chronic cervicitis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections is also increasing. In addition, some viruses such as herpes simplex virus have also become common pathogens. 1. Increased leucorrhea Sometimes it is the only symptom of chronic cervicitis. It is usually thick mucus or purulent mucus. Sometimes the secretions may contain blood or a small amount of blood, and there may also be contact bleeding. Vulvar itching may be caused by irritation from leucorrhea. 2. Pain Pain often occurs in the lower abdomen or lumbosacral region, and sometimes in the upper abdomen, thighs and hip joints. It worsens during menstruation, bowel movements or sexual intercourse, especially when the inflammation extends posteriorly along the uterosacral ligament or along the bottom of the broad ligament of the uterus, forming chronic parauterine connective tissue inflammation. The pain is even worse when the cardinal ligament of the cervix thickens. Whenever the cervix is touched, it immediately causes pain in the iliac fossa and lumbosacral region. Some patients may even experience nausea, affecting their sexual life. 3. Bladder and bowel symptoms Chronic cervicitis can spread through the lymphatic channels or directly spread to the bladder trigone or the connective tissue around the bladder. As a result, as soon as there is urine in the bladder, there is an urge to defecate, and symptoms of frequent urination or difficulty urinating appear, but the urine is clear and the routine urine test is normal. In some cases, the inflammation continues to spread or pass through the lymphatic pathways connecting the cervix, bladder trigone, and ureters, causing secondary urinary tract infection. Intestinal symptoms are less common than bladder symptoms, and some patients experience pain during bowel movements. |
