What is pelvic inflammatory disease?

Patient's question:

For a short time ago, my lower left abdomen was very painful. The doctor said it was pelvic inflammatory disease. He prescribed some anti-inflammatory medicine and medication to insert. I only took one dose of the anti-inflammatory medicine and then stopped. Now it doesn't hurt anymore.

Doctor's answer:

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common gynecological condition, referring to a group of infections in the upper female reproductive tract. The inflammation can be localized to a single site or affect multiple sites simultaneously. Based on its onset process and clinical manifestations, it can be classified into two types: chronic and acute. It is recommended to change underwear frequently and avoid wearing leather or synthetic fabric underwear. In addition to treating PID, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process.
