How to care after surgery for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease

Many women are troubled by pelvic inflammatory disease, which will affect women's fertility or sexual life. So in response to everyone's questions, let's briefly introduce how to care for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease after surgery? Let's listen to the introduction! Pelvic inflammatory disease is often divided into acute pelvic inflammatory disease and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. If the acute stage is not completely cured, it can turn into chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. Therefore, active and thorough treatment should be given in the acute stage. Temporary relief of symptoms should not be used as the standard for cure. At the same time, it is necessary to cooperate with lifestyle adjustment and prevention of recurrence.

Prevention and care:

1. Eliminate all routes of infection, keep the perineum clean and dry, wash the vulva with clean water every night, and use a dedicated basin for each person. Do not use your hands to clean the vagina, and do not use hot water, soap, etc. to wash the vulva.

2. If there is vaginal bleeding during menstruation, after abortion, and after gynecological surgery such as IUD insertion and removal, you must refrain from sexual intercourse, swimming, tub baths, and saunas. You must change sanitary napkins frequently. As this will reduce the body's resistance, pathogenic bacteria can easily enter and cause infection.

3. Patients diagnosed with acute or subacute pelvic inflammatory disease must follow the doctor's advice and actively cooperate with the treatment. Patients should rest in bed or take a semi-recumbent position to facilitate the localization of inflammation and the discharge of secretions. Patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease should not overwork, combine work and rest, and moderate sexual intercourse to avoid worsening symptoms.

4. Fever patients usually sweat a lot when the fever subsides. They should pay attention to keeping warm and keeping the body dry. Change clothes when sweating and avoid using air conditioning or direct convection wind.
