Patient's question:
A few days ago, in the morning after having sex with my husband, I felt sharp pain in my lower abdomen. Besides feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, it went away after using the restroom. Worried, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it's possible that the pain was caused by chronic appendicitis.Doctor's answer:
Chronic adnexitis can cause abdominal pain of varying severity, similar to acute adnexitis, or lower abdominal fullness and radiating discomfort, which fluctuate in intensity. It may be accompanied by symptoms such as increased leukorrhea, lower back pain, and menstrual disorders. Chronic adnexitis presents with abdominal pain of varying degrees, and recurrent chronic inflammation can lead to prolonged periods, causing pelvic congestion, fibrosis of connective tissues, and adhesions between pelvic organs. Patients may experience lower abdominal fullness, pain, and lumbosacral discomfort, which also fluctuate in intensity, accompanied by increased leukorrhea, lower back pain, and menstrual disorders. These symptoms often worsen during menstruation or after physical exertion. Patients must pay close attention to their diet, consuming more light and nutritious foods to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above information will be helpful to you.
