Patient's question:
Dear Expert:Hello
I am 33 years old. After my menstrual period ends, if I have sexual intercourse, I usually have another menstrual period, but this time it is not as heavy as usual. I gave birth to a son in October 2002, and six months later, I got an IUD. Since then, this situation has occurred frequently. During my annual health check-up last year, I was diagnosed with adnexitis, but I didn’t take it seriously.
Please provide guidance. What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Based on your description, it is likely that the symptoms are caused by appendicitis or pelvic inflammatory disease. You should pay attention to treating the appendicitis now.Chronic appendicitis is generally treated using a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. This includes Chinese medicine (primarily focused on promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis) and Western medicine (mainly antibiotics). Physical therapy options, such as laser, microwave, or ion penetration, can also be considered. In daily life, it is important to balance rest and activity, increase nutrition, and exercise to enhance overall immunity.

Administering antibiotics alone is not effective. It should be combined with anti-inflammatory and anti-adhesion medications (e.g., intramuscular administration of trypsin, or even the use of hormones).
