How is pelvic inflammatory disease caused?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have recently experienced abnormal vaginal discharge and lower back pain symptoms. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said I have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. What kind of illness is this, and how is it treated?

Doctor's answer:

Treatment for Chronic Pelvic Inflammation:
(1) Antibiotic Treatment: In chronic pelvic inflammation, the pelvic ligaments become thickened, making antibiotic treatment less effective. Antibiotics are generally used when chronic pelvic inflammation has an acute recurrence.
(2) Physical Heat Therapy: Applying warmth as a benign stimulus to permeate the pelvic ligaments, enhancing blood circulation, stabilizing ligament nutrition, reducing metabolism, and facilitating the resolution of inflammation.
(3) Ligament Therapy: Administering anesthetics, placental tissue fluid, etc., to boost the body's resistance and promote the subsidence of inflammation.
(4) Surgical Treatment: For chronic pelvic inflammation with significant masses, such as hydrosalpinx or tubo-ovarian masses, if non-surgical treatment is ineffective, surgical treatment may be considered.
