Classification and hazards of pelvic inflammatory disease

When the female internal reproductive organs, the surrounding connective tissue, and the pelvic peritoneum become inflamed, it is called pelvic inflammatory disease.

There are two types of pelvic inflammatory disease: acute and chronic. Acute pelvic inflammatory disease is a more serious gynecological disease, which is often caused by bacterial infection after childbirth, surgery, or abortion, or by the spread of diseases such as appendicitis due to poor hygiene during menstruation, and diseases of adjacent organs. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is often caused by untimely treatment of acute pelvic inflammatory disease. When chronic pelvic inflammatory disease attacks acutely, it can develop into chronic peritonitis, sepsis, or even toxic shock.

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is a common gynecological disease, which is more common in young and middle-aged women. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the disease is caused by insufficient endowment, careless health preservation, unclean vulva or excessive fatigue. Common symptoms include pain in one or both sides of the lower abdomen, swelling, back pain, excessive vaginal discharge, menstrual disorders, sexual intercourse pain, fever during menstruation, etc. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease includes endometritis, salpingitis, oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis and pelvic connective tissue inflammation. This disease can be limited to a certain part or several parts are inflamed at the same time. Let's talk about the general knowledge of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.

The clinical manifestations of the two are different. Acute pelvic inflammatory disease is often accompanied by high fever, chills, severe pain and tenderness in the lower abdomen. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is often accompanied by persistent pain in the lower abdomen, back pain, menstrual disorders, increased leucorrhea, urgency, frequent urination, dysuria, poor appetite, fever, headache, etc. There are cord-like masses and nodules on both sides of the lower abdomen, accompanied by infertility. Acute pelvic inflammatory disease is mostly a mixed infection of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The main causes of acute pelvic inflammatory disease are:

1. Postpartum or post-abortion infection

2. Infection after intrauterine surgery

3. Poor menstrual hygiene

4 Direct spread of inflammation to adjacent organs

5Acute attacks of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, etc.

Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is often caused by incomplete treatment of acute pelvic inflammation, or the patient's poor physical condition and prolonged course of the disease. However, some women do not have an acute pelvic inflammatory disease process, but directly manifest as chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is a stubborn disease, and when the body's resistance is poor, it can have an acute attack.
