Patient's question:
I may not have taken good care of my private hygiene recently, which has led to me getting pelvic inflammatory disease. My discharge is yellow, and it often has a strong odor. How can I take care of it? I have already received medication from the doctor. What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
In your situation, there is a possibility of pelvic inflammatory disease, with a higher likelihood of vaginal and cervical inflammation. Your current leukorrhea is yellow and has an odor, so you need to pay attention to external genital hygiene. You can use vaginal medication for about a week. Rest well during this period and avoid overtime work. Wash your external genitalia before and after sexual activity, and avoid sexual intercourse during menstruation. Wear loose cotton underwear. In terms of diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid strong tea, coffee, smoking, and drinking beer.In addition to treating pelvic inflammatory disease, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a pleasant mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
