What is chronic cervicitis with squamous epithelial hyperplasia and how should it be treated
As is well known, cervicitis is a common disease among women of childbearing age, with two types: acute and chronic. Acute cervicitis often coexists with acute endometritis or acute vaginitis. What are chronic cervicitis and squamous cell hyperplasia? How should I treat it?
Chronic cervicitis is more common after childbirth, miscarriage, or surgical damage to the cervix, where pathogens invade and cause infection. Chronic cervicitis has many manifestations. For example, cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, and cervical gland cysts, among which cervical erosion is the most common.
After understanding chronic cervicitis, what are chronic cervicitis and squamous epithelial hyperplasia?
Chronic cervicitis is a benign lesion, but contact bleeding must be taken seriously. Gland squamous epithelial hyperplasia and squamous metaplasia refer to the junction of squamous epithelium and columnar epithelium at the outer opening of the cervix. The monthly menstrual cycle undergoes periodic changes with the influence of hormone changes, which means the alternation of squamous epithelium and columnar epithelium. Scalification is also a benign change influenced by inflammation. In short, it is not a serious lesion. Generally speaking, there is only some inflammation in the cervix. However, treatment should also be given. Without treatment, the likelihood of cancer transformation is relatively increased.
The above is an introduction to the symptoms of chronic cervicitis and squamous cell hyperplasia, and the occurrence of these diseases requires prompt treatment. But how should I treat it?
1. Ironing technique
Contact the erosive surface with an iron to solidify the tissue and form a scab. After about 2 weeks, the scab begins to peel off, and wound healing usually takes 6-8 weeks. The surgery should be performed 3-5 days after the menstrual cycle is clean. Inflammatory individuals with attachments cannot use it. After treatment, vaginal discharge can temporarily increase or bleed. When bleeding is excessive, disinfected gauze can be used to compress and stop the bleeding, and it should be removed 24 hours later. The disadvantage is that scar contraction leads to cervical stenosis.
2. Cryotherapy
Using a liquid nitrogen rapid cooling device, place the probe on the erosive surface for 1-3 minutes, naturally rewarm, and then remove it to freeze and necrotize the affected tissue. After 2-3 weeks of treatment, many watery secretions can flow out. The advantage is less bleeding and cervical stenosis.
3. Laser therapy
Laser causes erosion tissue to carbonize and scab, and the healing process is the same as the previous two treatment methods. In short, the harm of chronic cervicitis with squamous cell hyperplasia to the human body cannot be underestimated, and the treatment method should be consulted with relevant doctors. I hope patients can seek medical treatment at a reputable hospital as soon as possible.
