Patient's question:
I am a person who works with words and often sits for long periods. Recently, I suddenly felt a burning pain in my lower abdomen and also felt extremely weak. A few days later, I started having a low-grade fever that wouldn't go away. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said it should be adnexitis (inflammation of the female reproductive organs). How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
If you sit for long periods, it is beneficial to your health, especially in hot summer conditions, as it can easily lead to vaginal inflammation. If the inflammation spreads downward, it may cause conditions such as adnexal inflammation or pelvic inflammatory disease. Currently, it is necessary to undergo a transvaginal ultrasound examination for a thorough check. If there is adnexal inflammation, a sensitive antibiotic should be used throughout the body for 2 weeks of treatment. During this period, sexual activity must be avoided, and spicy foods that may affect the condition should not be consumed. Before conception, it is important to have a detailed examination of the fallopian tubes.
