Patient's question:
I've been experiencing some lower abdominal heaviness and bloating these days, and my leukorrhea has increased a bit. I used to have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and it might be flaring up again. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and how it can be completely treated?Doctor's answer:
Mainly includes: (1) General symptoms are often not obvious, sometimes accompanied by low fever and easy fatigue. The course of the disease is prolonged, and some patients may have symptoms of neurosis. (2) Scarring adhesions caused by chronic inflammation, as well as pelvic congestion, can lead to lower abdominal heaviness, pain, and lower back pain, which often worsen during exertion, sexual intercourse, and before or after menstruation. (3) Due to pelvic congestion, patients may experience increased menstrual flow. Damage to ovarian function can cause menstrual disorders, and tubal adhesions and blockages can lead to infertility.
