Patient's question:
Health consultation description: Two days ago, I had an abortion and had polyps removed. The doctor asked me to go for intravenous infusion every day, to clean and change the dressing down there. Is this necessary?Doctor's answer:
After undergoing a minor abortion procedure, it is generally necessary to receive a few days of intravenous fluids and antibiotics to prevent infection from the surgery. After removing uterine polyps, there is no need to clean and change dressings daily. However, since the polyp removal was performed concurrently, this is necessary in this case. It is recommended that you follow your doctor's advice regarding medication use. If you are concerned about infection, you may appropriately use antibiotics to prevent it. It is advised that you rest and observe carefully. If you experience abnormal bleeding or unusual vaginal discharge, you should promptly visit a regular hospital's gynecology department for follow-up treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
