Patient's question:
I had an abortion three years ago. In the past year, I've been experiencing itching and discomfort in my lower body. I went to the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up. Could you please tell me how to treat this condition?Doctor's answer:
Chronic appendicitis presents with varying degrees of abdominal pain, recurrent chronic inflammation that persists over time, leading to pelvic congestion, fibrosis of connective tissues, and adhesions between pelvic organs. Patients may experience symptoms such as lower abdominal heaviness and distension, pain, and lumbosacral discomfort, which fluctuate in severity. These symptoms are often accompanied by increased leukorrhea, lower back pain, and menstrual irregularities, worsening during menstruation or after physical exertion. During gynecological examinations, tenderness, thickening, or painful masses may be observed in one or both sides of the adnexal region, with elevated or normal white blood cell counts.
