How long does it take for scab removal and bleeding after cervical erosion surgery?

The scab removal and bleeding after cervical erosion surgery generally lasts for 7-14 days. The specific time is related to the surgical method, wound size, personal healing ability and other factors.

Scabbing and bleeding are more common within 7 days after cervical erosion surgery. At this time, the wound surface is relatively fresh, and the oozing blood is mostly light red or dark red secretions, which may increase slightly after physical activity. For those who use freezing or laser surgery, the amount of bleeding is usually less than that of electroironing due to the high degree of local tissue coagulation. Bleeding may worsen during the scab removal period about 10 days after surgery, and will appear as a small amount of bright red blood mixed with peeling scabs. This is a normal repair process and there is no need to be overly nervous. Before the wound is completely healed, bleeding may occur intermittently but does not last for more than 24 hours, and the total daily bleeding does not exceed menstrual flow.

After surgery, the perineum needs to be kept clean and dry, and the vulva should be washed with warm water 1-2 times a day. Sexual life, bathing, and swimming are prohibited for 3 months. During the scab removal period, avoid strenuous exercise or lifting heavy objects. If there is heavy bleeding, you can temporarily wear a pad for observation. If you find a sudden increase in bleeding, an odor or a fever, you need to be reviewed in time. Cervical wound healing should be reviewed one month after surgery. Baofukang suppository and other drugs should be used as directed by the doctor to promote epithelial repair. The diet should be supplemented with high-quality protein and vitamin C.
