Patient's question:
These days, I feel this small abdomen is very uncomfortable, heavy, and feels cold and painful. Using a hot water bag helps a bit. This isn't my period because it just ended. My friend said this could be pelvic inflammatory disease, so I should go to the hospital right away. What I want to ask you is what are the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Ladies and gentlemen. There are many causes of pelvic inflammatory disease. For example, if you previously had vaginitis or cervical inflammation but did not receive proper treatment, it can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease. Additionally, inflammation in other parts of the abdomen can spread to the pelvic area, causing inflammation. The main symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease are lower abdominal bloating and discomfort, as well as an increase in vaginal discharge. Please compare your symptoms with the situation. If you indeed have such issues, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment. For severe cases of pelvic inflammatory disease, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately. Follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment and do not switch medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only.
