Patient's question:
Go to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said that there is 3.5 centimeters of fluid in my pelvic cavity, which is very dangerous and requires surgery. Hello, is this very serious? Is surgery necessary? How much does the surgery cost? Is pelvic inflammatory disease very serious?Doctor's answer:
Your problem is pelvic effusion, which can be treated with herbal decoctions. It is considered a symptom of blood stasis in the lower abdomen in traditional Chinese medicine. I recommend treating it with modified Shaofu Zhuyu Decoction for warming the meridians and promoting blood circulation: Chuanxiong,, Yuanhu, Wulingzhi, Chishao, Niaoxi (75g), Xiaohuaixiang, Puhuang (), Ruzi, Fu Ling, Miaoyao, Sanleng, and Ezhú. You can consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and use these herbs with modifications for treatment.There are several treatment methods for pelvic inflammatory disease, but the specific approach depends on the patient's symptoms, so the treatment must be tailored accordingly. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to ensure the correct treatment.
