Patient's question:
Usually, I often feel a sense of acid and fatigue in my small abdomen and waist. Sometimes, I experience some swelling and pain, and have been feeling extremely itchy in my lower body. Additionally, there is often a strange odor, and the discharge is not normal. After undergoing a gynecological examination, I was told that I have adnexitis. I would like to know what precautions I should take.Doctor's answer:
Hello,1. Pay attention to personal hygiene and cleanliness. Abstain from sexual activity during menstruation to avoid causing inflammation and infection. During menstruation, it is also important to pay special attention to hygiene. Change sanitary pads and liners frequently, and clean the external genital area daily with warm water.
2. Patients with adnexitis should rest more and avoid heavy physical labor and strenuous exercise. When resting in bed, adopt a semi-recumbent position with knees bent to localize the focus of adnexitis.
