What are the symptoms of acute cervicitis

　　Common pathogens are Grape cocci, streptococci, enterococci, etc. In recent years, with the spread of sexual disease increase, acute Cervicitis has become a common disease. At present, the most common pathogens of acute cervicitis are Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis. Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis both infect the cervical columnar epithelium and spread along the mucosal surface to cause superficial infection and mucopurulent cervical mucositis. In addition to the cervical columnar epithelium, Neisseria gonorrhoeae often invades the transitional epithelium of the urethra, paraurethral glands, and Bartholin glands. Chlamydia trachomatis infection only occurs in the cervical columnar epithelium and does not infect the squamous epithelium, so it does not cause Vaginitis , only acute cervical inflammation is formed.

　　Symptoms of acute cervicitis include redness and swelling of the cervix, congestion and edema of the cervical mucosa. Under light microscopy, blood vessels are congested, a large number of neutrophils infiltrate the cervical mucosa and submucosal tissues, and around the glands. Purulent secretions can be seen in the gland cavity, and the secretions can flow out through the external cervical ostium, indicating acute inflammatory changes.

　　The symptoms of acute cervicitis are increased vaginal secretions, which are mucopurulent. The irritation of vaginal secretions can cause Itching of the vulva , accompanied by backache and lower abdominal pain. In addition, lower urinary tract symptoms such as urgency, frequency, and dysuria are often present. Chlamydia trachomatis infection may also cause symptoms such as increased menstrual flow, intermenstrual bleeding, and bleeding after sexual intercourse. Gynecology Examination revealed cervical congestion, edema, erosion, and mucus-purulent secretions flowing out of the cervical canal. Chlamydial cervicitis can include cervical redness and swelling, mucosal ectropion, cervical tenderness, and often contact bleeding. Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection can also show congestion, edema, and a large amount of purulent secretions in the mucous membranes of the urethra and vaginal opening.
