Patient's question:
Suffering from pelvic inflammatory disease.Doctor's answer:
Hello, for patients with pelvic inflammatory disease who experience severe lower abdominal pain and show significant pelvic inflammatory signs during gynecological examinations, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins should be used in combination with metronidazole (Flagyl), administered intravenously after the menstrual period. If there are pelvic masses or severe inflammation with frequent recurrences, surgical treatment may be considered. Additionally, physical therapies such as shortwave, ultrashortwave, infrared, and drug iontophoresis can promote pelvic blood circulation, facilitate the absorption of inflammation, and may be used as appropriate. Chinese herbal medicines that invigorate blood circulation and clear heat-toxin can also be considered on a case-by-case basis.
