Patient's question:
Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the original line breaks preserved:Consult, I have had my child for over five months. When the child was born, I suffered from mastitis and couldn’t breastfeed. During the postpartum period, I had to receive intravenous saline every day. I didn’t do well during the postpartum recovery, and it was compounded by diarrhea (severe), I could say I was at my wit’s end.
At two months, because of work matters, I went back to work. The job mainly involves computers, and I found my eyes very strained. At four months, I went to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, who said my spleen and stomach were very weak, and that the diarrhea was caused by this. After taking medicine for one month, I felt much better, but I still felt it wasn’t fully resolved.
A few days ago, I went to the hospital for a checkup, and the doctor said my cervix was eroded 2+.
