Can moxibustion treat pelvic inflammatory disease?

Moxibustion can be used as a treatment for one case of pelvic inflammatory disease, but not all. If it is pelvic inflammatory disease, it is best to go to the gynecology department of a public hospital and receive medication.

Go to the gynecology department of a public hospital and have a vaginal secretion bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test to find out what disease causes the infection and what drugs the patient is more sensitive to. It is then better to choose sensitive drugs to treat pelvic inflammatory disease.

You can choose Western medicine or Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying for treatment, which usually takes 14 days.

Treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease

1. Psychological treatment: General treatment relieves patients' mental concerns, enhances their confidence in treatment, increases nutrition, exercises the body, pays attention to the combination of work and rest, and improves the body's resistance.

2. The warm and benign stimulation of physical therapy can promote local blood circulation in the pelvis. Improve the nutritional status of tissues and enhance metabolism to facilitate the absorption and disappearance of inflammation. Commonly used ones are shortwave, ultrashort wave, iontophoresis (various drugs such as penicillin, streptomycin, etc. can be added), wax therapy, etc.

3. Other drug treatments: Because the female reproductive system has a natural defense function, under normal circumstances, it can resist bacterial invasion. Pelvic inflammatory disease will only occur when the body's resistance decreases or the female's natural defense function is destroyed due to other reasons. Therefore, the private parts also need daily care. When cleaning the vulva every day, it is more appropriate to use a female care solution with a Ph4 weak acid formula. As for vaginal douching, once a week is enough to avoid bacterial imbalance and bacterial infection.

4. Surgical treatment is suitable for lumps such as hydrosalpinx or tubo-ovarian cysts; surgical treatment is also suitable for those with small infection foci and repeated inflammation. The principle of surgery is complete cure to avoid recurrence of residual lesions. Unilateral oophorectomy or radical hysterectomy plus bilateral oophorectomy is performed. For young women, ovarian function should be preserved as much as possible. The effect of single therapy for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is poor, and comprehensive treatment is appropriate.

5. Pelvic inflammatory disease is a common gynecological disease treated with traditional Chinese medicine. It is the abbreviation of inflammation of the female pelvic reproductive organs, including metritis, pelvic peritonitis, pelvic connective tissue inflammation and fallopian tube oophoritis. Traditional Chinese medicine also has some good ways to treat pelvic inflammatory disease. Traditional Chinese medicine divides pelvic inflammatory disease into five categories. By combining syndrome differentiation and treatment with Western medicine, it can achieve the effect of treating both the symptoms and the root cause.
