Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old. Recently, she has found that her private area is always itchy and feels hot, as if it were being burned. Could this be pelvic inflammatory disease? Please ask: What should I do if I have pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an inflammation of the female internal reproductive organs and the surrounding connective tissues, as well as the pelvic peritoneum. The inflammation can be localized to a single area or occur simultaneously in multiple areas, and it is classified into acute and chronic types. It is recommended to maintain good personal hygiene, actively treat vaginitis and cervical inflammation, and strengthen exercise to enhance physical fitness. If surgical indications are present, surgical treatment should be performed. Subsequently, patients should develop healthy daily habits.
