Patient's question:
Appendicitis (left) from June 2009 to November 2011; Reason: Treatment and effectiveness of intrauterine device (IUD): In November of this year, I received anti-inflammatory injections directly into the vaginal muscles under local anesthesia. A 5-day course with 10 injections was administered, and the IUD was removed. After treatment, I felt very well for the first month. Recently, I have noticed some abnormal vaginal discharge and occasional lower abdominal discomfort. Hello, has the appendicitis been recurring?Doctor's answer:
When suffering from appendicitis and the effectiveness of medication is not very satisfying, physical therapy can be combined, such as the use of laser, microwave, or iontophoresis treatment. Physical therapy can enhance local blood circulation, stabilize the nutritional state of human tissues, and improve the body's metabolic capacity, thereby aiding in the absorption and subsidence of inflammation. In fact, having appendicitis is not something to be afraid of. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as timely treatment is administered in the early stages, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
