Patient's question:
In October 2018, a careful examination revealed 1.5 cm of pelvic effusion. Two months later, after taking medication, a follow-up examination showed it reduced to 1.2 cm. I noticed it sometimes gets better and sometimes has a slight pain. Is it easy for pelvic effusion to recur? I feel that if I don't pay attention to my diet and eat spicy or fried foods, discomfort starts again. Can this condition be completely cured on its own?Doctor's answer:
According to the described symptoms, it is important to promptly visit a regular hospital's gynecology department for a check-up and follow the doctor's guidance for standardized treatment. If necessary, physical therapy can be combined, and cold compresses can be applied. Additionally, red root decoction enemas can be used. Rest and maintain personal hygiene, keeping the area clean and dry at all times. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, enhance nutrition, exercise moderately, and maintain a regular lifestyle. Pelvic effusion is a serious condition, and patients should receive immediate treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training and proper diet to avoid worsening the condition.
