"What sensations can one expect during a gynecological microwave treatment?"
Gynecological Microwave Therapy
Gynecological microwave therapy is a common physical method used to treat gynecological inflammatory conditions, including vaginitis, cervicitis, and more. During treatment, patients may experience symptoms or sensations such as warmth, increased vaginal secretions, mild abdominal discomfort, lumbar soreness, fever, etc. If symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and undergo targeted conditioning or treatment under the guidance of a physician. Detailed analysis is as follows:
1. Warmth Sensation
During treatment, the application of microwaves may cause local vasodilation, accelerated blood circulation, and increased tissue metabolism, leading to a sensation of warmth in the treatment area.
2. Increased Vaginal Secretions
During microwave therapy, high-frequency energy from the instrument kills the tissue cells in the affected area. This process may damage the columnar epithelium within the cervical canal, resulting in increased vaginal secretions.
3. Mild Abdominal Discomfort
During treatment, the instrument may need to be inserted into the vagina, which may cause patients to experience mild abdominal discomfort or pain.
4. Lumbar Soreness
If the treatment stimulates the lumbar tissues, it can affect local blood circulation, leading to lumbar soreness.
5. Fever
Microwave therapy may cause damage to local tissues, which can elevate white blood cell counts in the body, resulting in a slightly elevated body temperature above the normal range.
In addition to the above symptoms, bleeding and other symptoms may also occur. After treatment, it is recommended to maintain local hygiene by using running lukewarm water to cleanse the area. Avoid spicy and cold foods such as chili, hot pot, ice cream, etc., as they can hinder recovery.
