Patient's question:
For a while now, I've been feeling constant pain in my lower abdomen, and there's also some bleeding in my vagina, not during my menstrual period. I went to the hospital for a gynecological examination and found out that I have endometritis. I don't know what precautions I should take for this condition.Doctor's answer:
Hello, if diagnosed with acute endometritis, it is essential to follow the doctor's advice and take sufficient medication for thorough treatment. At the same time, rest in bed and adopt a semi-recumbent position to localize inflammatory exudates at the lowest part of the pelvic cavity and facilitate the discharge of lochia. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia, wash the external genitalia daily and change underwear to prevent reinfection. In terms of dietary care, drink plenty of water and consume a diet rich in protein and vitamins. Abstain from sexual intercourse during the illness.
