Patient's question:
These days, while washing my underwear, I always find a lot of cheesy-looking discharge on them, and it smells very bad. I also feel like my private area is always damp and a bit itchy, and my lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Please ask: What should I do if I have pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease is recommended to enhance dietary nutrition, engage in appropriate physical exercise, maintain bowel regularity, drink plenty of water, take proper rest, and avoid prolonged standing or squatting. In terms of treatment, different methods can be adopted based on the current specific conditions. Oral traditional Chinese medicine formulations such as King Tongue Syrup, Fule Granules, Gynecological Qianjin Tablets, and Fuyan Kang can be used; topical medications like Wild Chrysanthemum Suppositories and Kangfu Anti-inflammatory Suppositories are also applicable. Various physical therapy methods, including laser acupoint irradiation, drug ion infusion, shortwave therapy, microwave therapy, ultraviolet therapy, spectrum therapy, hot water, acupuncture, and traditional Chinese medicine enemas, can also be employed.There are many treatment methods for gynecological conditions, but since patients exhibit different symptoms, the diagnostic approaches vary accordingly. Therefore, it is essential for patients to receive a prompt diagnosis to ensure targeted treatment.
