Patient's question:
A few days ago, when I was intimate with my husband, I suddenly felt severe abdominal pain and nausea. Later, worried it might be a gynecological disease, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor's diagnosis was pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis, requiring immediate treatment, otherwise it could interfere with fertility. What are the treatment methods?Doctor's answer:
Acupuncture anesthesia (1)Main acupoints: Weibao, Kaituangegui, Guanyuan.
Accessory acupoints: Zusanli, Sanyinjiao.
Select 2 main acupoints and 1 accessory acupoint, injecting 0.5 mL of medication per acupoint. The acupoints can be rotated.
During anesthesia, the needle should not be inserted too deeply; insert it until the qi is obtained, then slowly push in the medication.
Administer once daily or every other day; a course of 6–10 treatments is recommended.
For patients with pelvic inflammatory disease, in addition to symptomatic treatment, dietary therapy can be used as supplementary treatment. In daily diet, proper eating habits should be maintained, avoiding irritating foods.
