Patient's question:
I am a 78-year-old woman who has been feeling very tired for a while. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I found out that I was sick. Please ask: What are the common symptoms of pelvic effusion?Doctor's answer:
A small amount of pelvic effusion may not cause symptoms. When the pelvic effusion increases, it becomes pelvic inflammatory disease, which can cause lower abdominal pain, aching, and a sense of heaviness. There may also be an increase in vaginal discharge, along with lower back pain and a feeling of fullness in the lower back. Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to keep a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
