Patient's question:
Since last October, I've been experiencing stomach discomfort and lower back pain. The check-up revealed pelvic effusion, and I've been undergoing continuous examination and treatment. I've seen both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine doctors, but the symptoms keep recurring. Now I still have some vaginitis, with symptoms like lower abdominal bloating, burning, and lower back pain. Could you please help me analyze this and advise on how to effectively treat it?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to undergo a routine vaginal discharge test to determine the specific type of vaginitis for targeted treatment, and maintain external genital hygiene and dryness. Avoid scratching, hot water bathing, and using soap. When infection occurs, use potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths. Underwear should be breathable and loose-fitting. Avoid alcohol, spicy, or allergenic foods. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects a woman's physical health but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
