Patient's question:
Patient Age:Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: Cesarean section 105 days
Duration of Current Illness: 11/19-11/21
Current General Condition: Occasional lower back pain and abdominal pain
Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). For patients with severe lower abdominal pain and significant pelvic inflammation upon gynecological examination, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins, combined with metronidazole (Flagyl), should be administered intravenously after the menstrual period. If pelvic masses are present or the inflammation is severe and recurrent, surgical treatment may be considered. Additionally, physical therapies such as shortwave, ultrashortwave, infrared, and drug iontophoresis can promote pelvic blood circulation and facilitate the absorption of inflammation, and may be used as appropriate. Chinese herbal medicines that invigorate blood circulation and clear heat-toxin can also be considered on a case-by-case basis.
