What are the precautions for pelvic inflammatory disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a common disease among women, so we must understand the relevant knowledge of pelvic inflammatory disease during the treatment period. However, many friends are not very clear about the precautions for pelvic inflammatory disease. So what are the precautions for pelvic inflammatory disease? Let’s learn about the precautions for pelvic inflammatory disease with the editor below.

Things to note about pelvic inflammatory disease:

1. Eliminate all routes of infection, keep the genitals 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 wash the vagina, and do not use hot water or soap to wash the vulva. During pelvic inflammatory disease, the amount of leucorrhea is large and sticky, so change your underwear frequently and do not wear tight or synthetic underwear.

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 take advantage of the opportunity to 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 must 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 be overworked, and should 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 after sweating and avoid air conditioning or direct convection wind.

5. Pay attention to the amount, quality, color and taste of leucorrhea. If the amount of leucorrhea is large, the color is yellow and thick, and it has a foul smell, it means that the condition is serious. If the leucorrhea changes from yellow to white (or light yellow), the amount changes from large to small, and the taste tends to be normal (slightly sour), it means that the condition has improved.

6. Patients with acute or subacute pelvic inflammatory disease should maintain smooth bowel movements and observe the characteristics of their stools. If pus is seen in the stool or there is a feeling of urgency and heaviness in the abdomen, they should go to the hospital immediately to prevent the pelvic abscess from rupturing the intestinal wall and causing acute peritonitis.

7. Some patients suffer from chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and take antibiotics on their own when they feel a little uncomfortable. Long-term use can cause vaginal flora disorders, resulting in increased vaginal secretions and white, bean curd-like leucorrhea. At this time, you should go to the hospital immediately to rule out candidal vaginitis.

8. Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease should pay attention to diet and nutrition. During the fever period, it is advisable to eat light and easily digestible food. Patients with high fever and loss of body fluid can be given pear juice, apple juice, watermelon juice, etc., but they should not be drunk after ice. Patients with yellow, heavy and thick leucorrhea are damp-heat syndrome, and should avoid fried, greasy and spicy food. Patients with lower abdominal cold pain, fear of cold, and back pain are cold-stagnation and qi-stagnation type, and can be given warm foods such as ginger soup, brown sugar water, and cinnamon meat. Those with five-heart heat and back pain are mostly kidney yin deficiency, and can eat meat and eggs, which are bloody and emotional products to nourish and strengthen.

9. Do a good job of contraception and minimize the trauma of artificial abortion. Strictly follow aseptic operation during the operation to avoid the invasion of pathogens.

10. Patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and abdominal masses can be treated with Chinese medicine retention enema, with very good results.
