Why does the postpartum discharge still have an odor after 25 days?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Why does the lochia still have a foul odor after 25 days postpartum?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, it is likely caused by inflammation, which is generally related to local pathogenic infection. You can try taking Amoxicillin and Metronidazole orally. Rest, avoid foods, drink more water, and it will gradually improve. Based on your symptoms, treatment should focus on soothing muscles, promoting blood circulation, and relieving pain. You can try steam therapy, taking Anti-Osteophyte Capsules, Huoxue Zhixing Pian (Promote Blood Circulation and Relieve Pain Tablets), and Duweiyi Capsules for treatment.
