Patient's question:
Female, 50 years old, her mother often experiences lower abdominal fullness and lower back pain. She doesn't know what's wrong with her. Later, she heard from a friend that it might be uterine fibroids. She wants to ask how to treat uterine fibroid symptoms.Doctor's answer:
I don't know what type of uterine fibroid you have. Uterine fibroids are divided into three types: submucosal, subserosal, and intramural. Surgery can be performed to remove the fibroid alone. If you currently have no symptoms, you can also carefully monitor the situation, as there is no significant risk. Oral acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be considered.For reference, different causes can lead to different symptoms. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular sleep schedules, take precautions against colds, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water daily.
