What is the cause of cervical blisters

Blisters in the cervix, also known as cervical cysts, are a disease that is relatively common among women. If Nabothian cyst is not treated in time, it will have a great impact on the patient's physical health. In severe cases, it may even affect women's physical health and fertility. The treatments for Nabothian cysts are divided into general treatments and Western medicine treatments. Here we will introduce the relevant knowledge about Nabothian cysts in detail!

1. Causes of the disease

The cause of the formation of Nabothian cyst is similar to that of "acne" on the face. During the healing process of cervical erosion, the newly formed squamous epithelium covers the opening of the cervical gland duct or extends into the gland duct, blocking the opening of the gland duct; the connective tissue around the gland duct proliferates or scars form, compressing the gland duct, causing the gland duct to narrow or even block, and the drainage of glandular secretions is obstructed. The cyst formed by retention is called cervical Nabothian cyst.

2. Symptoms

Symptom 1: The patient's uterine fundus or posterior wall bulges, and has a local cystic feeling. It can be divided into three types: subserosal, intramural and submucosal. If it is a pedunculated submucosal cyst, it can sometimes protrude outside the cervical os. Pathological examination shows that the cyst wall originating from the mesonephric duct is mostly composed of columnar or stratified squamous epithelium, while the cyst wall originating from the paramesonephric duct is mostly formed by ciliated columnar epithelium.

Symptom 2: The symptoms of congenital cervical Nabothian cyst are mostly not obvious. Sometimes a lump can be felt in the lower abdomen. The cervical glands have secretory functions and can secrete mucus. They can also be discharged through the glandular duct openings, participating in the formation of some "leucorrhea". During the healing process of cervical erosion, if the new squamous epithelium covers the cervical glandular duct openings or extends into the glandular ducts, it will cause blockage of the glandular duct openings.

Treatment

1. General treatment

Patients with Nabothian cysts have no clinical symptoms and are discovered accidentally during physical examination and do not require special treatment. If the glandular cyst is large and there are discomforts such as increased vaginal discharge, timely treatment is required. If the cyst is small and there are no symptoms, you can observe it first and go to the hospital for regular check-ups. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva at ordinary times. If you find that the cyst is infected, rapidly enlarged, or you have any discomfort, go to the hospital for treatment in time.

2. Western medicine treatment

For scattered, smaller Nabothian cysts, the first priority is to determine whether there is vaginitis or cervicitis. Actively treating the primary disease can improve or even eliminate the cyst. This is one of the solutions for cervical retention cysts.

For dense or relatively large Nabothian cysts, phototherapy, laser, microwave, and other physical therapy methods can be considered. Regular follow-up visits to clinical treatment records show definite efficacy, which is also one of the treatments for cervical retention cysts.

For cervical retention cysts, if they are larger and protrude from the surface of the cervix, electrosurgical resection or self-coagulation knife removal can be considered.
