Patient's question:
The medication abortion I had before went well. I took levofloxacin for ten days and then stopped, not taking it anymore. But in the past three or four days, my lower right abdomen has started to hurt. I already have appendicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. What kind of anti-inflammatory medication should I take for appendicitis?Doctor's answer:
Appendicitis is divided into acute and chronic types. The two most common symptoms of acute appendicitis are fever and abdominal pain. The fever can reach above 38℃ and may be accompanied by chills. Abdominal pain is often bilateral lower abdominal severe pain, which intensifies with light pressure, and sometimes one side of the lower abdomen is more painful than the other. Chronic appendicitis does not have obvious fever or abdominal pain. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treatment, which will not cause drug resistance and achieve better therapeutic effects. It is advised to use Kuihua Kangfu Xiaofang Shuan (Huaier Anti-inflammatory Suppository) for various common gynecological inflammation, gynecological pain, vulvar itching, and abnormal leukorrhea, with stable therapeutic effects. During the treatment of appendicitis, in addition to symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must always maintain a cheerful mood to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of appendicitis.
