Patient's question:
Last year in the second half, pelvic inflammatory disease was detected. After taking several dozen traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, the discomfort symptoms disappeared. During the last days of the year, a cold caused dizziness, cold hands and feet, frequent dreams, and easy fatigue, which has not improved to this day.Doctor's answer:
Hello, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common gynecological condition. If it is not treated promptly, it can lead to the spread of inflammation between physiological parts and cross-infection, as well as cause many complications, and may even result in malignant lesions in certain areas. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is a condition where Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is particularly effective, while Western medicine has limited treatment options. It is recommended not to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time, as this can lead to drug resistance and dysbiosis, causing more severe inflammatory infections. It is advisable to combine TCM and Western medicine for treatment, which will not lead to drug resistance and will yield better results. Recommended Chinese medicine includes Qifeng Qianjin Pian (capsules). Generally, 3-4 courses of treatment are recommended, with 2-3 courses for those with milder conditions. Each course lasts 14 days. During menstruation, sexual activity, swimming, hot tub baths, and saunas should be avoided, as the body's resistance is lowered at this time, making it easier for pathogens to enter and cause infection.
