Patient's question:
I have been experiencing increased leukorrhea recently, and my lower abdomen also hurts, especially at night when the pain is particularly severe. There is also some itching in my external genitalia. What could be the reason for this? Is it definitely appendicitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, symptoms of adnexitis: Adnexitis is a common disease that causes infection of the fallopian tubes and ovaries after pathogenic microorganisms invade the reproductive organs. It is divided into acute and chronic types. Acute adnexitis has obvious symptoms, such as fever, chills, and severe lower abdominal pain. Chronic adnexitis has varying degrees of abdominal pain, or a sense of heaviness and pulling in the lower abdomen, which fluctuates in severity and is accompanied by symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, lower back pain, and menstrual disorders. It is recommended to minimize the consumption of pickled and cured foods, advocate a light diet, and eat more foods rich in vitamin C and plant protein. Pay attention to keeping warm and adapting to weather changes, and maintain regular bowel movements.
