Patient's question:
Detailed condition and consultation purpose: Can chronic appendicitis be cured? Will inflammation on one side affect the other?Doctor's answer:
Hello; Chronic adnexitis is the most prevalent among gynecological inflammatory conditions. It is also known for being difficult to treat and prone to recurrence. Antibiotics alone are not effective for chronic adnexitis; it requires long-term supportive therapy, which includes increasing nutrition and improving the body's immunity. The most important way to boost immunity is through physical exercise. This not only improves immunity but also enhances mental and physical well-being. A poor mood can attract various illnesses, and chronic adnexitis is largely considered a disease.Medication for chronic adnexitis does not provide immediate relief; symptoms gradually subside. The primary medications used are traditional Chinese medicine formulations such as Fule Chongji, Kingjinteng capsules, Fuyanning, and Gongyanpin. It is essential to take these medications continuously for at least one month. Never stop medication just because symptoms improve, as recurrence is likely to occur soon after. Physical therapy can be combined with medication. Its effects include reducing local edema, softening scars, promoting intestinal motility, improving blood circulation, and enhancing the condition of localized lesions.
When treating adnexitis, it is also important to actively address lower genital tract infections, as conditions like vaginitis and cervicitis can lead to pathogens ascending. If you have an intrauterine device (IUD), consider removing it.
