Patient's question:
When I went for a prenatal check-up yesterday, the doctor said I have pelvic effusion. Doctor, is pelvic effusion the same as pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Pleural effusion is pelvic inflammatory disease, which can be treated with oral Chinese medicine, oral penicillin drugs, or macrolide anti-inflammatory drugs. It can also be treated with physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, cupping, and moxibustion. Pay attention to preventing colds, soak your feet in hot water every night, wash your external genitalia with clean water every day, pay attention to your diet, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and eat less greasy and spicy food. Do not stay up late, maintain a regular schedule, and ensure sufficient deep sleep.
