Patient's question:
A 45-year-old woman is not in good mental state and feels sick. After checking, she was diagnosed with a certain illness. Please ask: Can acupuncture help relieve pelvic effusion?Doctor's answer:
Using acupuncture alone cannot alleviate pelvic effusion. The effect of acupuncture is merely to relieve pain. It is better to combine it with traditional Chinese medicine or intravenous fluids for treatment. During treatment, attention should also be paid to diet, adequate rest, and increased fluid intake. Avoid spicy and irritating foods in daily life, and pay attention to personal hygiene and sexual hygiene. Do not have any psychological stress and maintain a cheerful mood. Additionally, get plenty of rest during this period, and maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will benefit both you and the fetus in your belly.
