What should be done for postpartum pelvic inflammatory disease

Patient's question:

I am 25 years old, female. Last year, I was carefully diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease. After that, I took medication for treatment, but I still feel it hasn't improved. Now, I still have a lot of leukorrhea and often have lower back pain. Please advise on how to treat pelvic inflammatory disease after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common gynecological inflammation that requires timely treatment. During the acute phase, antibiotics can be taken to control the spread of the condition and prevent it from worsening. Enhanced daily care is necessary, with attention to local hygiene, gentle washing of the genital area with warm water, and a diet that is light and free of spicy foods. Drinking plenty of water is also important. Sexual activity must be strictly avoided during treatment. Patients should develop a regular sleep schedule, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of infection.
