Patient's question:
My aunt had an abortion surgery a few weeks ago. After that, she came home and had been bleeding until a week later when it finally stopped. After it stopped, she often felt itchy at the vaginal opening and sometimes a bit swollen, with some discharge and a slightly unpleasant odor.Doctor's answer:
After pelvic inflammatory disease caused by human flow, it is generally recommended to seek treatment: bed rest, taking a semi-recumbent position, which helps accumulate pus in the uterosacral fossa, forcing the inflammation to localize. Provide adequate nutrition and fluid intake, correct electrolyte imbalances and acid-base balance. For severely ill patients, consider minimal surgery to enhance physical resistance and prevent unnecessary gynecological examinations. Stop using vaginal douching to prevent the spread of inflammation.2. Antibiotic treatment: Appropriate antibiotics should be used based on bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. Intravenous administration is highly effective. In addition to treating pelvic inflammatory disease, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance physical fitness and slow down the recovery process.
