Is severe cervicitis serious?

When people suffer from a disease, the first thing they will consider is whether the disease is serious or not. In fact, this is the most correct thing to do, because only when we understand the severity of our disease can we be mentally prepared. In the same way, patients with severe cervicitis generally think about whether severe cervicitis is serious. For this question, some medical experts have given their own answers. They all agree that is severe cervicitis serious? This question can be divided into many situations. Let us understand them together.

Some women believe that preconception treatment will affect the course of pregnancy and delivery. This view has no scientific basis. Not to mention that cervicitis itself makes it difficult for women to get pregnant. Even if they are lucky enough to get pregnant, the massive increase in estrogen levels in the pregnant woman's body will make cervical erosion more serious, and may even cause very difficult-to-treat prenatal bleeding, thereby endangering the safety of the fetus in the expectant mother's belly. Therefore, once pelvic inflammatory disease, cervicitis or cervical erosion is discovered, timely and thorough treatment should be carried out.

1) Drug treatment: For those with small erosion surface and shallow inflammatory infiltration, the following drug treatment methods can be used: ① 10-20% silver nitrate: Apply topically once a week, 2-4 times as a course of treatment. ② Potassium permanganate: Apply topically after menstruation, and repeat the application once after 1 to 2 months. When using the above-mentioned drugs, you must be careful to prevent burns to the surrounding vaginal walls, and pay attention to disinfection when using the drugs to prevent repeated infections.

Cervical erosion with a larger eroded area and deeper inflammatory infiltration. ① Electric ironing: Use a special electric iron to burn the eroded surface tissue, causing it to necrotize and fall off, and the ironing must reach a certain depth, so that the treatment effect is good. ② Cryotherapy: Use a special rapid freezing device to freeze, necrotize and fall off the diseased tissue on the cervical erosion surface. The commonly used cryogen is liquid nitrogen, which can reduce the temperature of the cryostat to -196 degrees Celsius and place it on the surface of the cervix to freeze the eroded tissue, causing it to necrotize and fall off, and then new epithelial tissue will grow. It can be cured in 1 time. There are generally no adverse reactions, and a few patients experience mild dizziness, lower abdominal pain, etc. ③Laser treatment: Use carbon dioxide laser therapy device more often, and use a special laser treatment head to irradiate the cervical erosion tissue, so that the eroded tissue will carbonize, indurate, and fall off, and then grow new squamous epithelium. Generally, it can be cured in one time. There was no special discomfort during the operation, but a few patients experienced bleeding during the dementia removal. ④KS instrument treatment: It uses special band light and heat treatment and is painless. The effect is good.

3) Whether it is physical therapy or local medication, the principle is to cause the columnar epithelium on the erosion surface to necrotize, scab, and fall off, and then be covered by new squamous epithelium, which lasts for about 3 to 4 weeks. Deep lesions require treatment for 6 to 8 weeks. During the period from treatment to complete healing (4 to 8 weeks), care should be taken to keep the vulva clean, avoid bathing, sexual intercourse and vaginal douching, and check the healing status regularly. It is particularly important to note that improper treatment, such as improper operation and use of electric irons and laser treatments, may cause scarring or stenosis of the cervical opening and may also affect pregnancy.

Is severe cervicitis serious? In fact, there is no absolute answer to this question, because everyone is an independent individual, so everyone's situation is different. Even for severe cervicitis, everyone is different. It cannot be considered very serious and cannot be generalized. The first thing patients with severe cervicitis must do is to go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment immediately. If they delay, it will only make the condition worse.
