Patient's question:
Female, 46 years old, poor mental state, feeling sick. After checking, which disease was it? Please ask: How can pelvic effusion be relieved?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion is caused by inflammation, specifically resulting from the exudation due to chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. It is a relatively common gynecological condition. If the effusion is minimal, it is recommended to use intravenous antibiotics for a week, followed by oral medication. Currently, it is reported that heat therapy has shown good effects. If conditions permit, heat therapy can be performed. Alternatively, you can purchase a heat lamp from a pharmacy for abdominal irradiation to complement antibiotic treatment. During heat therapy, attention should be paid to temperature and distance to avoid burning the skin. It is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia at all times and pay attention to menstrual hygiene. During menstruation, sexual intercourse, tub baths, swimming pool baths, vaginal irrigation, and vaginal examinations should be avoided.
