Patient's question:
I carefully checked and found pelvic effusion. I have already undergone three days of 40-minute physical therapy sessions, while also taking medication. The doctor said I still need specialized physical therapy. I want to know if the physical therapy is effective and how long I need to do it for.Doctor's answer:
Your condition is characterized by symptoms caused by pelvic inflammatory disease and pelvic effusion, which can lead to lower abdominal discomfort and abnormal vaginal discharge. In your case, it is generally caused by recurrent vaginitis. I recommend paying attention to rest and maintaining good external genital hygiene. If the pelvic effusion is not significant and is less than one centimeter, it should not be a major issue and may be physiological. Pelvic effusion can also occur during the ovulation period. Physical therapy can be used to treat pelvic effusion, such as iontophoresis, and the treatment typically takes about a week.
