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 that my private area is always damp and a bit itchy, and my lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Could you please tell me what the best treatment for pelvic inflammatory disease is?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 adequate rest, and avoid prolonged standing or squatting. In terms of treatment, different methods can be adopted based on the current situation. Oral traditional Chinese medicine can be used, along with various physical therapy methods such as laser acupoint irradiation, drug ion infusion, shortwave, microwave, ultraviolet light, spectrum therapy, hot water Sitz baths, acupuncture, and traditional Chinese medicine enemas, among others. It is advised to seek immediate medical attention at a formal hospital for a thorough examination and to receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor to avoid missing the opportunity for timely care. Pelvic inflammatory disease can cause significant harm to patients, so once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, patients should pay close attention to self-care, such as eating more fruits and vegetables and avoiding foods. It is hoped that patients with pelvic inflammatory disease can receive professional treatment.
