Patient's question:
How can acute pelvic inflammatory disease be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
For patients with pelvic inflammatory disease who experience severe lower abdominal pain and show significant pelvic inflammatory signs during gynecological examinations, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins, combined with metronidazole (metronidazole), should be administered intravenously after menstruation. If the pelvis has masses or the inflammation is severe and frequently recurs, surgical treatment may be appropriate. Additionally, physical therapies such as shortwave, ultrashortwave, infrared, and drug iontophoresis can enhance pelvic blood circulation, aid in the absorption of inflammation, and may be used as needed. Chinese herbal medicines that promote blood circulation and clear heat-toxin can also be considered.
