Cervicitis will usually be cured when the course of therapy is complete. Severe cases, however, may last for a few months, even after the therapy is complete. If the cervicitis was caused by a sexually transmitted disease, both partners should be treated with medication.

Cervical lymphadenitis, defined as an acute symptomatic enlargement of the cervical lymph nodes, is a common condition in children of all ages. Most cases of cervical lymphadenitis in children are self-limited and can safely be monitored for spontaneous resolution over four to six weeks.
Cervical lymphadenopathy is abnormal enlargement of lymph nodes (LNs) in the head and neck usually >1 cm. Most cases are benign and self-limited, however, the differential diagnosis is broad.
Acute bilateral cervical lymphadenitis is usually caused by a viral upper respiratory tract infection or streptococcal pharyngitis. Acute unilateral cervical lymphadenitis is caused by streptococcal or staphylococcal infection in 40% to 80% of cases.
The most common etiologies of cervicitis are infectious, with sexual transmission of organisms such as with C trachomatis and N gonorrhoeae being the primary means by which it is spread. Other etiologic organisms include Trichomonas vaginalis and herpes simplex virus (HSV), especially primary type 2 HSV.
If cervicitis is not treated, it can lead to a serious infec- tion called pelvic inflammatory disease. This could cause problems, such as infertility and tubal pregnancy. Both vaginitis and cervicitis are common. Vaginitis can be caused by a yeast infection, bacteria, or trichomoniasis.
Cervicitis is an inflammation (irritation) of the lining of the cervix. The cervix is the tip of the uterus (womb), and extends down into the vagina. Men have no cervix, and therefore cannot get cervicitis.
