Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling lower back pain and a heavy sensation in my lower abdomen. I'm not at ease about going to the hospital for a check-up, but they said I have hydrosalpinx. I'd like to ask: What are the treatments for hydrosalpinx with minimal side effects?Doctor's answer:
Hello, hydrosalpinx refers to the accumulation of secretions from the mucosal cells in the lumen of the fallopian tube after tubitis or due to adhesion locking. It can also occur when tubitis recurs, leading to adhesion at the isthmus and fimbriae, causing blockage and resulting in tubal abscess. When the pus cells in the lumen are liquefied, a watery liquid is ultimately formed. Tubal ostomy can be performed, and the key to surgical success is ensuring that the newly formed valve remains in an outwardly flared state and maintains patency.If you experience distension and pain, you can consume foods such as pig kidneys, sea eels, bayberries, hawthorns, orange cakes, walnuts, pecans, and chestnuts. If you have infections, you can eat foods like celery, sea catfish, clams, sesame, buckwheat, and carp.
