Patient's question:
I've been feeling lower back pain recently. A colleague said it might be a symptom of pelvic inflammatory disease. What's the difference between the pain of pelvic inflammatory disease and lower back pain?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) generally tends to recur with symptoms of lower abdominal pain. If PID worsens, it may also lead to recurring symptoms of lower back pain. To determine whether you have PID, you need to go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination for diagnosis. Lower back pain may recur with some symptoms of lower back soreness, while true lower back pain will recur with pain in the lumbar spine. In this case, it will never recur with soreness symptoms. PID poses significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and pay close attention to self-care. Increase your intake of fruits and vegetables while avoiding foods. It is hoped that PID patients can receive professional treatment.
