What are the symptoms of acute salpingitis?

Patient's question:

Today I felt a particularly sharp pain in my lower abdomen, and the pain was so intense that I felt like crying. Later, I went to the hospital to see a gynecologist. The doctor said I had acute tubo-ovarian inflammation. I had never had such symptoms before. What are the symptoms of acute tubo-ovarian inflammation?

Doctor's answer:

Patient, acute salpingitis generally presents with severe pain on both sides of the lower abdomen. Some individuals may also experience high fever, increased vaginal discharge, irregular vaginal bleeding, and other symptoms, with rebound tenderness being prominent. If such symptoms are present, it is necessary to seek medical attention for relevant examinations. If you have confirmed acute salpingitis, intravenous treatment can be chosen. If an abscess has formed, local drainage may be required. In severe cases, surgery may also be necessary.
