Patient's question:
I have had chronic pelvic inflammatory disease for 5 years. My legs always feel uncomfortable, with pain, irregular menstruation, and abnormal leukorrhea. It hurts a lot, and the symptoms keep recurring without relief. I would like to ask how chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is treated?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) poses certain challenges in treatment but must be persistently addressed. Combining traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for treatment is recommended. In the chronic phase, a combination of Chinese and Western medicine treatment is advised. The treatment duration is relatively long, so it is recommended to begin treatment after each menstrual period, generally for 7-10 days. Continuous medication for three months can yield noticeable effects. PID is a condition that is difficult to fully alleviate. Friends suffering from PID should maintain an optimistic mindset and face it with a positive attitude, as this can boost their confidence in combating the disease and increase their belief in recovery.
