Explain the diagnostic method of chronic cervicitis

Cervicitis is a common disease among women of childbearing age. It can be divided into acute and chronic types. However, chronic cervicitis is the most common type of cervicitis. So, what are the diagnostic methods for chronic cervicitis? Let's learn about it together.

1. According to clinical manifestations: 1. Symptoms. Increased vaginal discharge, white and sticky or yellow-green purulent. Patients feel back pain, lower abdominal discomfort, vulvar itching or stinging when urinating. If caused by gonorrhea, there is often fever. 2. Signs Cervical congestion. Edema, local contact bleeding; in severe cases, the epithelium on the surface of the cervix is ​​exfoliated, necrotic, and ulcerated, the cervical mucosa is turned outward, and a large amount of purulent mucus is discharged from the cervical canal. This is one of the diagnostic methods for chronic cervicitis.

2. Secretion smear: A large number of pus cells can be seen when examining and culturing the smear, and bacteria can be found when performing Gram staining; secretion culture can culture out pathogenic bacteria.

After wiping off the secretions on the outer surface of the cervix, insert a small cotton swab into the endocervical canal and take it out. The naked eye can see yellow or yellow-green mucopurulent secretions on the white cotton swab. The secretions are smeared for Gram staining. If there are more than 30 neutrophils per high-power field under the light microscope or more than 10 neutrophils per oil-immersed field, MPC can be diagnosed. The diagnosis method of chronic cervicitis is to test for gonorrhea and Chlamydia trachomatis for MPC to identify the pathogen.

3. Pathological examination: cervical squamous epithelium exfoliation, endometrial glandular hypersecretion, a large number of neutrophil infiltration in the stroma and around the glands; in severe cases, neutrophils can invade the surface layer and even the glandular epithelial cells. Tissue edema, vascular dilation and congestion, but pathological examination is generally not performed during the acute inflammatory period.

The above mainly introduces the diagnosis methods of chronic cervicitis in detail, and I hope it will be helpful to female friends. If you have other questions, you can come to our hospital for detailed consultation.
