Patient's question:
After giving birth, I've always felt some pain in my lower abdomen, with recurring inflammation in the cervix, and my menstrual cycle has been somewhat irregular. At first, I thought it wasn't a big deal and didn't pay much attention. Occasionally, a friend from the hospital mentioned it could very well be pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and suggested I see a doctor. When I did, I found out it really was PID.What kind of assistance I need: What are the self-treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease?
Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for pelvic inflammatory disease, often due to wearing tight pants during menstruation or the uterus being chilled, preventing menstrual blood from being expelled properly. Over time, this can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease.Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease should avoid sitting for long periods: daily sitting time should not exceed 2-3 hours, as prolonged sitting is considered the root of all illnesses, especially for women suffering from chronic pelvic effusion and other gynecological conditions. It is highly beneficial to change underwear and sanitary pads frequently to prevent catching colds, avoid extremely cold and irritating foods, and not overexert oneself.
