How to treat cervicitis

Cervicitis is one of the common gynecological diseases, which is more common in women of childbearing age. It is caused by damage to the cervix and invasion of pathogens, including inflammation of the cervical vagina and inflammation of the cervical canal mucosa. Clinically, cervicitis is divided into acute and chronic types, with chronic inflammation being the most common.

There are three main treatments for cervicitis:

1. Drug treatment: Acute cervicitis is mainly treated with antibiotics, while chronic cervicitis can be treated with local drugs or physical therapy. For Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection, large doses of single-dose antibiotics are usually used for treatment. At the same time, if there is cervicitis caused by trauma, anti-inflammatory drugs need to be taken for treatment. For physical therapy, it is suitable for cases with more severe inflammation or deeper inflammatory infiltration. Common methods include electric ironing, laser, freezing, microwave, etc., but the recurrence rate is high.

2. Surgical treatment: For cervical polyps, polypectomy is performed. For patients with deep cervical erosion, large area, and deep inflammatory infiltration, cervical cone resection can be considered, but traditional cervical cone resection causes a lot of bleeding and is now rarely used. High-frequency radio wave knife Leep knife surgery is now more commonly used.

3. Other treatments: During the treatment of cervicitis, patients should use sanitary pads during the day. It is recommended to choose pads made of pure cotton, which have better breathability. In addition, patients with cervicitis should wash their private parts with warm water every day to avoid secondary infection.

Regardless of the treatment method, sexual intercourse should be avoided during treatment, and regular follow-up should be performed after treatment to evaluate the treatment effect and prevent recurrence. At the same time, maintaining good living habits and eating habits can also help prevent the occurrence of cervicitis.
