How to treat chronic pelvic inflammatory disease?

Question:

I have been suffering from chronic pelvic inflammatory disease for several years. Recently, both sides of my pelvis seemed to be pulled by something. The doctor said it might be adhesion. I took anti-inflammatory injections for a week but there was no effect.

How should chronic pelvic inflammatory disease be treated? Is there any physical treatment method? What should I pay attention to in my daily life? Can I have sex? (Because every time I have sex, my pelvis hurts a lot the next day).

answer:

The systemic symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease are not obvious and the patient is prone to fatigue. Adhesions and pelvic congestion caused by chronic inflammation can cause lower abdominal distension, pain, and lumbar pain, which often worsen after fatigue, sexual intercourse, and before and after menstruation.

Some patients have symptoms such as menstrual disorders and infertility. To treat chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, the first step is to confirm the disease and distinguish it from endometriosis.

Endometriosis can be ruled out by testing blood for endometrial antibodies or performing B-ultrasound to see if there are chocolate cysts, adenomyosis, etc.

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease has a long course and is difficult to cure. Its treatments mainly include physical therapy, traditional Chinese medicine treatment and surgical treatment. In short, physical therapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment are "apply, infuse, and take".

Physical therapy is specifically light therapy, and the general course of treatment takes 10 days, once a day; Chinese medicine treatment can be divided into external use and internal use.

One of the external methods is to try the external application recipe, which is a warm pack made from more than 20 kinds of Chinese herbal medicines ground into powder; the second external method is the traditional Chinese medicine enema method.

Chinese medicines for oral administration include Guizhi Fuling Capsules, Sanjie Analgesic Capsules, Xiaojin Capsules, etc. Persistent use is the key to Chinese medicine treatment. Surgical treatment, mainly laparoscopy, can separate adhesions and is more suitable for patients who are eager to become pregnant.

Patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease can have sexual life, but they should pay attention to sexual hygiene and should not be too tired to prevent recurrence of inflammation.
