Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How should pelvic inflammatory disease be treated?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) vary. Acute PID symptoms include lower abdominal pain, fever, and increased vaginal discharge. The pain is persistent and worsens with activity or sexual intercourse. In severe cases, symptoms may include chills, high fever, headache, and loss of appetite. If the disease occurs during menstruation, it may lead to heavier menstrual flow and prolonged periods. If PID forms an abscess, it can cause local pressure symptoms. Pressure on the bladder may result in frequent urination, dysuria, and difficulty urinating; pressure on the rectum may cause rectal symptoms such as tenesmus. Maintain cleanliness and dryness in the perineal area. Abstain from sexual activity during menstruation and after gynecological surgery. Once diagnosed with acute PID, strictly follow medical advice and actively treat the condition. Patients with fever should pay attention to keeping warm and maintaining body dryness. Ensure bowel movements are regular.
