Precautions after cervical erosion surgery, these 7 nursing measures are critical

Cervical erosion is a relatively common gynecological disease. Although it is relatively common, most patients have mild symptoms. Some are physiological and do not require treatment. However, we should not underestimate pathological cervical erosion. Severe cases require surgery. So, what are the precautions after surgery for cervical erosion?

Cervical erosion actually refers to the red and rough appearance of the external opening of the cervix. This is not true "erosion", but a normal "stress" reaction that occurs when hormones surge in women's bodies. However, driven by economic interests, various treatment methods have been derived, and the LEEP knife, a technology originally used to treat cervical precancerous lesions, is now used by many hospitals to treat cervical erosion.
Due to the general lack of standardization in the understanding and treatment of cervical erosion, cervical erosion is overtreated. At the same time, after receiving treatment, patients may mistakenly believe that cervical erosion has been cured and they will not get cervical cancer in the future, so they will no longer undergo cervical screening, which will increase the risk of cancer in the future. Women are relatively more susceptible to HPV infection when columnar epithelial eversion occurs. It is recommended that women of childbearing age should undergo regular cervical screening to keep abreast of their health status.
Things to note after cervical erosion surgery : 1. No sexual intercourse for one month; no bathing in a tub.
2. Some patients may experience a slight feeling of falling, which will improve the next day.
3. One week after the operation, there will be a small amount of light yellow hydrophilic secretions in the vagina, which will decrease after the second week and improve after half a month.
4. If there is a small amount of bleeding about seven to fourteen days after treatment, no treatment is needed. If the amount of bleeding is like menstrual flow and the color is bright red, you should go to the hospital in time to stop the bleeding.
5. Keep the vulva clean and change underwear and sanitary napkins frequently.
6. After the cervical erosion surgery, you should pay attention to proper rest, stay up late, avoid doing heavy physical work, and eat less spicy food.
7. Follow-up examinations will be conducted 15, 25, and 55 days after surgery.
