For married women, inflammation of the cervix is common. Many patients, when facing this disease, take medication without authorization to treat pain and anti-inflammatory drugs. In fact, their approach is very inappropriate because different patients with cervicitis have different treatment methods or medications.
Do patients with cervicitis need medication?
1. Patients with mild inflammation
For female patients with mild cervical inflammation, immediate medication is not necessary. Due to illness, it is likely that the couple's life is too frequent. Therefore, what they need to do is adjust the frequency of their couple's lives and strengthen the cleanliness of their private areas. Over time, inflammation may disappear. Therefore, for such patients, if they do not have excessive uncoordinated reactions, they can observe for a period of time.
2. Patients with fever symptoms
Many patients with cervicitis may experience fever, and for such patients, they are likely to have been infected with bacteria. Therefore, in order to prevent the expansion of bacterial infection, it is necessary to use anti infective drugs. However, when choosing medication, patients must follow the doctor's instructions and cannot diagnose the medication themselves, in order to avoid drug errors and expand the scope of infection.
What should patients with cervicitis pay attention to when taking medication?
1. Appropriate use of medication
For patients with cervicitis, doctors usually prescribe external medication, but the medication needs to be placed deep in the vagina by the patient themselves, and the patient's hand needs to be used to insert the medication into the vagina. Therefore, for female patients, when using such drugs, the hygiene of the medication is something they must pay attention to. They must use sterile items such as specialized gloves to stuff the medication in the designated location, and never directly use their hands to stuff the medication.
2. Pay attention to the duration of medication
Generally, doctors only prescribe medication to patients for a week. If the spread of inflammation has not improved after using all the medication for a week, then they need to go to the hospital to replace the medication, as this type of medication is not effective for them. Patients should not mistakenly believe that as long as the duration of use of this drug is extended, the effect can be seen, as most patients can see the effect after one week of medication.
