Patient's question:
I gave birth 2 months ago, and the ultrasound showed a cyst in the left ovary, size 026mm, with a borderline nature. I had an ultrasound in January which showed no abnormality in the uterus or blood clots. I took biochemical tests and medication, but there was still a cyst in the left ovary. I had a cesarean section and have been feeling very weak. I was given penicillin for inflammation but couldn't have the injection. I can't even have sex, and the inflammation isn't improving. I don't know what to do.Today, I had another large amount of blood flow. Can my illness be treated?
I want to know, in addition to anti-inflammatory treatment,
Doctor's answer:
1) The indoor air should be well-ventilated to facilitate the early recovery of the body's qi and blood. Encourage the postpartum woman to get up and move early, which helps in the circulation of qi and blood, allowing residual blood stagnation in the uterus to be expelled as soon as possible.2) The temperature should be appropriate. For qi deficiency and blood stasis syndromes, it is important to keep warm and avoid the invasion of cold pathogens. For blood heat syndromes, clothing and bedding should not be too warm to prevent aggravating the symptoms. Maintain cleanliness in the perineum, and use warm water or a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths every night.
3) The diet should be light yet nutritious. Qi deficiency individuals may consume chicken soup, longan soup, jujube soup, etc. Blood heat individuals may eat fresh lotus root, pears, cucumbers, watermelon, tomatoes, and other fruits. However, it is generally advisable to avoid cold and pungent foods.
