What is the cause of mild cervicitis and what to do

Mild cervicitis is mostly caused by ascending infection. Because the symptoms are relatively mild, most patients have no clinical manifestations and generally do not require treatment and can be observed. However, if there is an increase in vaginal discharge, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time and take medication as prescribed by the doctor.

Mild cervicitis may be caused by the infection of the cervix by bacteria, viruses and other pathogens. Since the pathogens are relatively small and the patient's resistance is relatively strong, some people may not have symptoms. Others may be caused by long-term use of antibiotics, which leads to an imbalance of vaginal flora. Harmful bacteria multiply and cause mild cervicitis.

If the patient has symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, vulvar itching, lower abdominal pain, etc., and if the discharge is found to be infected with pathogenic bacteria, levofloxacin, azithromycin and other drugs can be given for treatment according to the doctor's advice. During the treatment, attention should be paid to hygiene, avoid sexual intercourse, and prevent cross infection.
