I haven't been feeling well recently. I have a lot of white discharge, fatigue, lower back pain, and abdominal pain. What are the symptoms like?Doctor's answer:
The typical symptoms include fever, lower abdominal pain that is resistant to pressure, and a large amount of purulent vaginal discharge. It may be accompanied by fatigue, lower back pain, and menstrual disorders. In severe cases, symptoms may include high fever, chills, headache, and loss of appetite. If peritonitis is present, symptoms such as nausea, dry vomiting, and abdominal pain may reappear. If an abscess forms, if it is anterior, symptoms such as urinary frequency, urinary urgency, and dysuria may occur; if it is posterior, symptoms such as tenesmus, rectal fullness, nausea, vomiting, and difficulty defecating may occur.
