How to treat cervical erosion and hypertrophy? Physical therapy is effective

Cervical hypertrophy is a type of chronic cervicitis. Women who have given birth are particularly prone to cervical hypertrophy. Cervical hypertrophy can cause an increase in leucorrhea with an odor, and in severe cases can lead to infertility. It must be treated as soon as possible, and you can choose physical therapy or traditional Chinese medicine treatment.

1. Physical therapy

For patients with cervical hypertrophy, deep and extensive erosion involving the cervical canal, and/or suspected malignant changes, physical therapy can be selected. Common treatments include:

1. Electric ironing: Use the electric iron head to touch the eroded surface to coagulate the tissue and form a scab. The scab will begin to fall off after about two weeks, and it usually takes 6 to 8 weeks for the wound to heal. The operation should be performed 3 to 5 days after the end of menstruation. Do not use if you have adnexitis. After treatment, leucorrhea may temporarily increase or cause bleeding. If there is a lot of bleeding, use sterile gauze to apply pressure to stop the bleeding and remove it after 24 hours. The disadvantage is that scar contraction may sometimes lead to cervical stenosis.

2. Cryotherapy: Use a liquid nitrogen rapid cooling device, place the probe on the eroded surface for 1 to 3 minutes, remove it after natural rewarming, and cause the diseased tissue to freeze and necrotize. A lot of watery discharge may occur 2 to 3 weeks after treatment. The advantage is that bleeding and cervical stenosis occur less frequently.

3. Laser treatment: Laser carbonizes and forms scabs on the eroded tissue, and the healing process is the same as the previous two treatment methods.

4. Focused Ultrasound Therapy
