Patient's question:
I am 35 years old this year, and I often have itching in my lower abdomen and lower abdominal pain. I have washed with potassium permanganate and taken medication, but it hasn't been effective. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor diagnosed it as pelvic inflammatory disease. How can pelvic inflammatory disease be cured? Can harsh treatment be used? What kind of medicine should I take? Or do I need to be given intravenous fluids?Doctor's answer:
You often have itching in your external genitalia and lower abdominal pain. You have used potassium permanganate solution for washing and taken medication, but it hasn't relieved the symptoms. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed it as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which is a common gynecological condition today. If it is chronic PID, there is no need for intravenous treatment; instead, antibiotics can be taken in combination with traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, and anti-inflammatory effects. However, if it is acute PID, intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary.Additionally, during the treatment for PID, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient should pay close attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above information can help you. Thank you.
