Various tumor-like formations, benign and malignant, occupy a prominent place in a number of diseases that lead people to the operating table. Among the diseases of the female genital organs, one of the first places in frequency is damage to the cervix, the so-called erosion.
Erosion in a woman is a condition of the mucous membrane in which part of it is deprived of its integument - the epithelium, as a result of which the connective tissue base is exposed. Distinguish between pseudo-erosion of the cervix and true erosion. The most common disease in the genital area among women is ectopia, as it is called pseudo-erosion. To clarify the size and type of erosion, a colposcope examination is used.
Erosion is often accompanied by non-specific inflammation. Timely detection and treatment of the inflammatory process is the main preventive measure.
To date, the most effective way to treat this disease can be called a radio wave treatment for cervical erosion . Such a surgical process is performed using high-frequency radio emission apparatus. After passing the necessary tests and examinations, the attending physician may prescribe a special procedure by which cauterization of cervical erosion is made by radio waves.
Radio wave treatment of cervical erosion is used at the stage of progressive, complicated inflammation. Frequency radiation of waves acts on tissues, cells react to these radiation, generating heat. Under local anesthesia, incisions are made with special electrodes. When simulating high-frequency waves, an incision occurs with simultaneous sealing of tissues, which eliminates bleeding and contributes to the rapid healing of postoperative wounds. The procedure is carried out with high accuracy, the depth of the wound is under control, which allows not to affect healthy tissue. Radio wave treatment of cervical erosion in our time is the most modern method to eliminate this disease.
The method of treating women with radio wave erosion eliminates the appearance of a scar line on the cervix, which is extremely important for women who have not yet given birth.
The method of treatment with radio waves is used to treat other inflammations of the cervix, as well as for safe biopsy.
The benefits of treating erosion with radio waves can be safely attributed to the singleness of the procedure. This method belongs to the category of gentle and does not leave a burn mark.
After the procedure, slight discharge of red-brown, pink color is possible, which is not a complication and does not require additional treatment. Also, in some cases, a woman may experience pulling pain in the lower abdomen. In case of abundant secretions of acidic, putrefactive odor, you should urgently run to the doctor.
Radio wave treatment of cervical erosion does not cause significant inconvenience, but it is still recommended after this procedure to limit physical activity a bit, do not walk much, avoid swimming in the pool, river, sea, do not bathe in the sauna, replacing it with a shower. The doctor will prescribe to abstain from sexual activity for 10-14 days, depending on the size of the treated tissue. Early sexual intercourse can lead to longer healing of the epithelium and cause bleeding.
The radio wave method of treating erosion has some contraindications:
- diseases in the field of oncology,
- during pregnancy (at any time),
- menstruation
- acute infectious diseases,
- the presence of an intrauterine device.
This treatment is carried out on the 5th-10th day of menstruation, after childbirth - on 40-45 days, i.e. after the cessation of suckers.
In order not to have to use radio wave treatment, a woman should visit a gynecologist once a month and monitor her health. If you identify any symptoms, do not self-medicate and do not delay to see a doctor.
