Patient's question:
Patient Age: 27Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: I have had a lateral vaginal prolapse since postpartum, and it has been six months. I am very troubled and hope you can help me!
Doctor's answer:
Vaginal wall prolapse refers to the condition where the female reproductive organs, including the pelvic floor muscles, fascia, and uterine ligaments, undergo tearing due to injury, or the vaginal support tissues fail to return to normal and are exposed outside the vaginal opening due to other reasons. Individuals with mild symptoms may experience no discomfort or feel a prolapsed mass in the vaginal area, while severe cases may exhibit a sensation of heaviness, with the prolapsed mass enlarging during exertion or physical strain. Gradually, difficulty in urination may occur, and in some cases, even complete urinary retention may happen, requiring manual repositioning of the prolapsed mass back into the vagina for urine to be expelled. It is recommended to adopt traditional Chinese medicine treatment for comprehensive and targeted therapy, wishing for a speedy recovery.
