Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been feeling slightly unwell recently. Due to training reasons, I haven't had a thorough check-up at the hospital. The past two days, during sexual activity, I felt a bit of pain in my lower abdomen. I had never noticed this before and just realized it two days ago. Today, I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor told me I have pelvic inflammatory disease.Doctor's answer:
Patient, for those with severe lower abdominal pain and significant pelvic inflammatory findings during gynecological examination, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins should be used in combination with metronidazole. Additionally, pelvic inflammatory disease can be effectively treated with microwave therapy, while medication-based treatment is relatively slow. Physical therapies such as shortwave, ultrashortwave, infrared, and drug iontophoresis can enhance pelvic blood circulation, aiding in the resolution of inflammation and may be used as appropriate. We hope you recover soon.Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease can, while understanding the need for symptomatic treatment, also incorporate dietary therapy as a complementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid excessive hunger or fullness in daily eating habits and never overeat or binge on food.
