Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that my private area has been itchy and feels hot, as if it's being burned. Is this a sign of inflammation? Please ask: What methods are needed to treat endometritis?Doctor's answer:
Endometritis is the inflammation of the endometrium. Based on the duration of the course, it can be divided into acute endometritis and chronic endometritis. After a recurrence of endometritis, the entire uterine cavity often experiences edema and exudation. During the acute phase, it may also cause systemic symptoms, such as fever, chills, elevated white blood cells, lower abdominal pain, increased leukorrhea (vaginal discharge), which may sometimes be bloody or foul-smelling. The uterus may be slightly enlarged and tender. Chronic cases also exhibit similar symptoms, which may include excessive menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal pain, and significant lumbosacral discomfort. The best treatment method currently is to adopt traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) regulation and treatment. Combining TCM and Western medicine can effectively address the superficial symptoms of the disease while also alleviating the fundamental factors of sepsis.
