Many women are not very familiar with some gynecological diseases, and even cannot distinguish the difference between the two diseases. Cervical erosion is actually one of the manifestations of chronic cervicitis, which is a more common gynecological disease. In order to increase women's understanding of cervicitis and cervical erosion, the following will specifically talk about the symptoms of cervicitis and cervical erosion.
Cervicitis is caused by damage to the cervix or invasion of pathogens, mainly inflammation of the cervix, vagina, or cervical mucosa. The occurrence of cervical erosion is due to the abnormal secretion of estrogen in the body, resulting in a granular red area that appears to be eroded from the position of the cervical external opening to the naked eye.
It should be noted that the symptoms of cervicitis and cervical erosion are very similar, and even some individual symptoms may be the same. Therefore, without detailed examination, it is easy to confuse cervicitis and cervical erosion. If there is an increase in vaginal discharge, yellowing, and an unpleasant odor, accompanied by lower abdominal or lumbar pain, or urinary tract irritation such as frequent urination or difficulty urinating, these are all symptoms of cervicitis.
The above symptoms can also occur when suffering from cervical erosion, because cervical erosion is mainly a symptom of cervical infection. Once cervical cysts and hypertrophy are also found, it proves that cervical erosion has occurred. In fact, whether it is cervicitis or cervical erosion, if the disease is found, it should be treated as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition and affecting physical and reproductive health.
