What to do if pelvic effusion recurs

Pelvic effusion refers to the presence of inflammatory secretions in the female pelvis, which is mostly caused by inflammatory infection. Pelvic effusion has a great impact on women's physiological health. In addition, pelvic effusion is recurrent and may recur if not properly managed after treatment. So what should we do if pelvic effusion recurs?

1: Irregular treatment. During the treatment process, patients must be scientific, standardized and thorough. Never stop treatment when you feel you have no symptoms. This is only a temporary solution, but not a cure. Therefore, it is easy to cause recurrence of the disease.

2: Indiscriminate use of antibiotics and other therapeutic drugs. When treating patients with pelvic inflammatory disease, some inexperienced medical staff may abuse antibiotics and other drugs when treating patients.

The patient's own condition worsens. If adhesions have occurred during treatment, coupled with pelvic congestion, the patient may experience pain or a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen. This is very unfavorable for the treatment of the disease, and it is easy for the disease to recur, increasing the patient's suffering.

If women do not pay attention to care after undergoing pelvic inflammatory disease surgery, it will not only affect the treatment effect but also increase the chance of disease recurrence. Therefore, patients must pay attention to disease care after surgery to avoid recurrence of the disease.

1: Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is mostly of the damp-heat type, and the treatment principle is to clear away heat and dampness. The main function of the prescription is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. The prescription uses: Salvia miltiorrhiza 18g, Red Peony Root 15g, Costus Root 12g, Peach Kernel 9g, Honeysuckle 30g, Taraxacum Mulberry 30g, Poria 12g, Moutan Bark 9g, and Rehmannia Glutinosa 9g. If the pain is severe, add 9g of Corydalis yanhusuo. Some patients are of the cold stagnation and qi stagnation type, and the treatment principle is to warm the meridians and dispel the cold, promote qi and activate blood circulation. Guizhi Fuling Decoction is often used with modifications. For those with qi deficiency, add 15g of Codonopsis pilosula, 9g of Atractylodes macrocephala, and 15g of Astragalus membranaceus.

Other drug treatments: When using anti-inflammatory drugs, 5 mg of α-chymotrypsin or 1500 U of hyaluronidase can also be used at the same time, injected intramuscularly once every other day, 5 to 10 times as a course of treatment, to facilitate the absorption of adhesions and inflammation. The medication should be discontinued if local or systemic allergic reactions occur in individual patients. In some cases, antibiotics are used simultaneously with dexamethasone, 0.75 mg of dexamethasone is taken orally 3 times a day, and the dose should be gradually reduced when the drug is discontinued.

The benign stimulation of warmth in physical therapy can promote local blood circulation in the pelvic cavity. Improve the nutritional status of tissues and enhance metabolism to facilitate the absorption and disappearance of inflammation. Commonly used methods include short wave, ultrashort wave, iontophoresis (various drugs such as penicillin, streptomycin, etc. can be added), wax therapy, etc.

Disease resistance and immune function are important for preventing infection.
