Patient's question:
I went to the hospital a few days ago, and the doctor said I had pelvic inflammatory disease and cervical hypertrophy with a little tenderness. He gave me a week of anti-inflammatory injections. Today, during the follow-up check-up, there's still some tenderness. Is this serious? Can I see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor? I feel so tired and exhausted after the injections. The test and examination results are fine.Doctor's answer:
Regarding the issue of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), it is crucial to take it seriously. Chronic PID can lead to a series of gynecological diseases and even cause inflammation of organs. The key to treatment is to cleanse toxins from the body, regulate endocrine function, enhance immunity, and provide the necessary nutrients for anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and wound-healing processes. Herbal medicine can be used to activate blood circulation, clear heat, and detoxify. Recommended herbal medicine is Qiguan Jinsan Pian (capsules). Generally, 3-4 courses of treatment are recommended, with 2-3 courses for those with milder conditions, with each course lasting 14 days. It can effectively treat chronic PID. Persistence in treatment can completely cure the condition. During sensitive periods, avoid sexual activity. During menstruation, after induced abortion, or after gynecological surgeries such as IUD insertion or removal, when there is vaginal bleeding, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited. Wishing you good health.
