A brief discussion on the nursing methods for acute pelvic inflammatory disease

Many female friends are familiar with pelvic inflammatory disease, and the harm of pelvic inflammatory disease is also quite large, so patients must not ignore it. However, the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease has gradually increased in recent years, and a large part of it is because people do not know enough about the causes of pelvic inflammatory disease and cannot actively prevent it in daily life. So, let's ask relevant experts to introduce the nursing methods for acute pelvic inflammatory disease. I hope it can be helpful to everyone.

Experts introduce the following nursing methods for acute pelvic inflammatory disease:

(1) 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 odor, it means that the condition is serious. If the leucorrhea changes from yellow to white (or light yellow), the amount decreases, and the taste becomes normal (slightly sour), it means that the condition has improved.

(2) If there is vaginal bleeding during menstruation, after abortion, or after gynecological surgery such as IUD insertion or removal, you must refrain from sexual intercourse, swimming, bathing in a tub, or taking a sauna. You must change sanitary napkins frequently. This will reduce the body's resistance and make it easier for pathogens to enter the body and cause infection.

(3) Some patients, who suffer from chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, take antibiotics on their own when they feel a little uncomfortable. Long-term use may cause disturbance of vaginal flora, which may increase vaginal discharge and present as white dregs-like vaginal discharge. In this case, they should go to the hospital for treatment to rule out fungal vaginitis.

(4) The nursing methods for acute pelvic inflammatory disease also include that 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 drink it after icing. Patients with yellow, heavy and thick vaginal discharge are damp-heat syndrome, and should avoid eating fried, greasy and spicy food. Patients with cold pain in the lower abdomen, fear of cold, and back pain are cold-stagnation and qi-stagnation type, and they can be given warm foods such as ginger soup, brown sugar water, and cinnamon meat. Those with restlessness and 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 the body.

(5) Prevent all routes of infection, keep the perineum clean and dry, wash the vulva with clean water every night, use a dedicated basin for each person, and never use your hands to wash the vagina, nor use hot water or soap to wash the vulva. During pelvic inflammatory disease, there is a lot of leucorrhea, which is thick and sticky, so change underwear frequently and do not wear tight or synthetic underwear.

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

(8) 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 pathogenic bacteria.

(9) Patients with fever usually sweat a lot when the fever subsides. They should keep warm and dry, change clothes when sweating, and avoid using air conditioning or direct convection wind.
