Patient's question:
I had a tubal contrast on November 14th and found fluid accumulation on the left side, but the contrast agent flowed out of the pelvic cavity. After the procedure, I had diarrhea on the same day and experienced mild lower back pain for the next three days. The doctor prescribed four days of levofloxacin hydrochloride, five sessions of shortwave therapy, and oral anti-inflammatory medication. Now my lower back doesn't hurt anymore, but I've noticed viscous yellow discharge from my vagina;1. What is the cause of the yellow discharge?
2. Is the anti-inflammatory injection sufficient?
3. How can I know if the inflammation has subsided?
4. Can I be treated with traditional Chinese medicine?
