Doctor's answer:
Suffering from chronic pelvic connective tissue inflammation? Don't be pessimistic; you should build confidence in winning. Most importantly, you must persevere and strive for as thorough a treatment as possible to avoid prolonged illness and repeated acute episodes that worsen the condition and increase treatment difficulty. During treatment, increase nutrition, maintain a balance between rest and activity, keep a cheerful mood, and avoid excessive or unclean sexual activity. Eliminate all infection pathways, keep the perineum clean and dry, and wash the external genitalia with clean water every night. Use separate basins for each person and never dig into the vagina with your hands. Also, avoid using hot water or soap to wash the external genitalia. During pelvic inflammation, leukorrhea is often abundant, thick, and viscous, so it's necessary to change underwear frequently and avoid tight or synthetic fabric underwear.(2) During menstruation, after induced abortion, or after gynecological surgeries like IUD insertion or removal, if there is vaginal bleeding, sexual activity must be avoided. Swimming, tub baths, or saunas are also prohibited. Sanitary pads should be changed frequently, as the body's resistance is lowered at this time, making it easier for pathogens to cause infections.
Chronic pelvic inflammation patients should also avoid overexertion, maintain a balance between rest and activity, and restrain sexual activity to prevent symptoms from worsening.
Pelvic inflammation patients should pay attention to dietary care. Those with yellow, abundant, and viscous leukorrhea belong to the damp-heat pattern and should avoid fried, greasy, and spicy foods. For those with lower abdominal cold pain, fear of cold, and lower back pain, it's the cold-stagnation pattern, and they can consume warm foods like ginger soup, brown sugar water, or longan meat. Those with five-palm heat, lower back pain, and kidney yin deficiency can eat meat, eggs, and other nourishing foods to strengthen their bodies.
For chronic pelvic inflammation and abdominal mass patients, Chinese medicine retention enema therapy is highly effective. It promotes blood circulation and resolves blood stasis.
