Patient's question:
During the prenatal check-up, there was 7mm of fluid accumulation. After the induced abortion, a follow-up examination was conducted. The ultrasound doctor said that the recovery was excellent, but the attending physician stated that there was 3.5x1.5cm of fluid accumulation. How is this possible? Is it serious? What medication would be best? The doctor prescribed Ginkgo biloba.Doctor's answer:
There are symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease. Pelvic effusion is caused by chronic inflammation's long-term impact, leading to congestion and edema in the pelvic area. Based on your current condition, it is recommended not to eat spicy foods and avoid sexual activity for the next two weeks. You can take Bactrim DS, tinidazole, and ciprofloxacin for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment. Additionally, use menstrual pain patches and apply them 2 inches below the navel for treatment. Take Ginkgo biloba concurrently.
