Can adnexitis cause leg pain?

It is very painful to have gynecological diseases, because gynecological diseases are mostly caused by inflammation, and the female reproductive organs are relatively complex and have many diseased parts. Therefore, many women face the impact of gynecological diseases for a long time. Among them, adnexitis is a common gynecological problem, which brings a lot of pain and suffering to women. Let’s take a look at whether adnexitis can cause leg pain?

First of all, it is certain that adnexitis can indeed cause leg pain in women. Not only that, common symptoms women usually experience after suffering from adnexitis include lower abdominal pain, increased vaginal discharge, genital malposition, etc.

So, why does adnexitis cause leg pain? Women often experience leg pain after suffering from chronic adnexitis. Chronic adnexitis is usually caused by untimely and incomplete treatment of acute adnexitis. At this time, the existence of inflammation has a negative impact on the surrounding tissues. When the disease develops to a certain extent, it will also affect the lower limbs and cause thrombophlebitis. In other words, the presence of inflammation is the main cause of leg pain in women.

Some patients may not only experience leg pain, but also leg swelling. In fact, the harm of adnexitis is far more than that. If the disease is not effectively treated and controlled, women may also experience abdominal pain, short-term pain and other physical discomforts. At this time, women can use hot towels to apply heat to their legs, which can help relieve leg pain to a certain extent.

You need to go to the hospital to check the routine leucorrhea and check the type of vaginitis based on the results. Specific medication should be used. Do not take medication blindly to avoid vaginal flora imbalance, inflammation, and prolonged healing. Adnexitis is caused by ascending infection of vaginitis and generally does not cause leg pain.

Finally, women should take better care of their own health and treat adnexitis correctly to avoid endangering their own health due to repeated development of the disease.
