Patient's question:
I went to the hospital. The doctor told me it was pelvic inflammatory disease. I got a few injections and am now taking medication. My stomach still hurts, but it's not constant pain—it hurts sometimes and doesn't hurt other times. It hurts when I go to the bathroom. How can pelvic inflammatory disease be effectively prevented from occurring?Doctor's answer:
Hello, Western medicine primarily uses LEEP (loop electrosurgical excision procedure), surgery, intravenous fluids, topical medications, and other anti-inflammatory and antibacterial treatments for pelvic inflammatory disease. However, these methods not only fail to cure the condition but also, due to the long-term use of antibiotics, lead to the development of drug resistance, thereby increasing the difficulty of treatment. Physical treatments may also cause new psychological trauma and may interfere with fertility. Traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine have accumulated many unique treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. Additionally, during the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease, apart from medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also extremely important. Patients must avoid excessive stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of pelvic inflammatory disease.
