Chronic cervicitis and life expectancy: the importance of proper treatment and care

I often worry about the impact of chronic cervicitis on life expectancy. In fact, chronic cervicitis itself usually does not directly affect life expectancy, but if it is not treated in time, it may cause more serious health problems.

Chronic cervicitis is a common gynecological disease that usually does not directly affect life expectancy. However, if left untreated, it may lead to more serious health problems such as cervical cancer, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for maintaining health and prolonging life⚠️.

The correct treatment for chronic cervicitis includes the following four points: 👇

🌸1. Antibiotic treatment: Use antibiotics to control infection according to the doctor's instructions. Usually, the doctor will choose the appropriate antibiotic based on the results of bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test of cervical secretions. You need to complete the entire course of treatment according to the doctor's instructions. Even if the symptoms are relieved early, you should not stop taking the medicine on your own.

🌸2. Physical therapy: For chronic cervicitis accompanied by cervical erosion or cervical polyps, doctors may use physical therapy methods such as cryotherapy, laser therapy or electric ironing therapy to remove cervical diseased tissue.

🌸3. Surgical treatment: In certain cases, such as severe cervical erosion or cervical polyps, or the presence of cervical precancerous lesions, surgical treatment may be required. Surgical methods include loop electrosurgical excision procedure or cold knife cone biopsy.

🌸4. Regular review: Chronic cervicitis requires regular gynecological examinations and cervical smear tests to monitor changes in the condition and detect potential risks such as cervical cancer at an early stage. The doctor will develop a review plan based on the specific situation.

During the treatment, you should maintain good personal hygiene habits and avoid excessive sexual activity or the use of irritating cleaning products to reduce the risk of cervical irritation and infection. At the same time, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, such as moderate exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate sleep, will help improve your body's immunity and promote recovery. If you have any questions or discomfort, you should consult a professional in time.
