Patient's question:
These past few days, I've noticed an increase in my leukorrhea, and I've been taking daily baths, accompanied by a strong foul odor. I also have some abdominal pain. I went to the hospital for an ultrasound and was diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease. Could you please tell me what pelvic inflammatory disease is and how it should be treated?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease should be accompanied by pelvic effusion, etc. It is often caused by poor hygiene during menstruation or inappropriate sexual activity before or after menstruation, leading to infection. In these days, avoid staying up late, and observe the condition of secretions. However, do not feel stressed. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination if necessary and start medication as soon as possible. In these days, also avoid consuming extremely cold foods.
