Patient's question:
I have been living with my boyfriend for over two years. Two months ago, I started noticing that my vaginal discharge had increased significantly compared to before. Sometimes, besides mild abdominal pain, it worsens during my period. Additionally, along with lower back pain, it tends to ease after my period. I did some research and felt it might be symptoms of adnexitis. Is lower back pain a symptom of adnexitis?Doctor's answer:
Common cases of this condition are caused by gynecological inflammation, such as vaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and adnexitis, among others. It is recommended to conduct a leukorrhea secretion examination and a gynecological examination to assess the condition of the cervix and pelvic area. Rest, avoid abdominal cold exposure, and enhance your physical fitness. Adnexitis can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay close attention to self-care, consume more fruits and vegetables, and avoid foods. It is hoped that patients with adnexitis can receive professional treatment.
