Patient's question:
Is pelvic effusion easy to heal? Why did my pelvic effusion measuring 5.32.5cm not go away completely after three days of intravenous fluids, and I still have abdominal pain now? What's going on? Do I need to take medicine to fully recover for a while?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion is caused by inflammation affecting the reproductive organs, requiring timely medication treatment. It is necessary to avoid irritating foods and take medication for treatment while closely monitoring the condition. Sexual activity should be temporarily suspended. Pelvic effusion is primarily due to deficiency of qi and blood and downward flow of damp-heat, making it difficult to alleviate with general medications. Western medicine mainly uses LEEP (LEEP), surgery, intravenous fluids, topical medications, and other anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and physical treatments. These methods not only fail to relieve the condition but also, due to prolonged use of antibiotics, lead to drug resistance, thereby increasing the difficulty of treatment. Physical treatments may cause new psychological trauma and may interfere with fertility. Therefore, it is essential to receive proper treatment to achieve the goal of recovery.
