What is right side adnexitis?

Right adnexitis is one of the common inflammations of the female reproductive system, mainly caused by infection. Common symptoms include lower abdominal pain, fever and abnormal vaginal discharge. Treatment should be based on the cause, including antibiotics, physical therapy or surgery.

1. Genetic factors

Although adnexitis itself is not directly inherited, certain genetic factors may increase the susceptibility of the female reproductive system. For example, women with a family history of pelvic inflammatory disease may be more susceptible to infection due to a weaker inherited immune system.

2. Environmental factors

Bad living habits and external environment may induce adnexitis. Sitting for a long time, wearing tight clothes, using unclean sanitary products, etc. may increase the risk of infection. Frequent sexual life or unclean sexual behavior are also common causes.

3. Physiological factors

Women have a special physiological structure. Their vagina is connected to the outside world and is easily invaded by bacteria. During menstruation, immunity decreases. If hygiene is not taken care of, it is more likely to cause infection. After miscarriage, childbirth or intrauterine operation, the reproductive system is in a fragile state and is also prone to inflammation.

4. Trauma

Medical procedures such as pelvic surgery and hysteroscopy may damage the reproductive organs and increase the risk of infection. If aseptic operation specifications are not strictly followed, bacteria may invade through the wound and cause adnexitis.

5. Pathological factors

Adnexitis is usually caused by bacterial infection, common pathogens include gonococci, chlamydia and E. coli. If not treated in time, the inflammation may spread to the fallopian tubes and ovaries, causing more serious pelvic inflammatory disease or infertility.

Treatment:

1. Drug treatment

Antibiotics are the first choice for the treatment of adnexitis. Commonly used drugs include cephalosporins, azithromycin and metronidazole. The specific medication should be selected according to the type of pathogen and drug sensitivity.

2. Physical therapy

Physical therapy such as hot compress and infrared irradiation can promote local blood circulation and relieve pain and inflammation. It is suitable for patients with chronic adnexitis or mild symptoms.

3. Surgical treatment

For patients who do not respond to medical treatment or whose condition is severe, surgery may be necessary. Common surgical procedures include laparoscopy, abscess drainage, or adnectomy.

Prevention and care:

1. Diet adjustment

Eating more foods rich in vitamin C and protein, such as citrus fruits, eggs, and fish, can help boost your immunity. Avoid spicy, greasy foods that can increase inflammation.

2. Lifestyle

Keep the vulva clean and avoid using irritating lotions. Wear loose and breathable underwear, avoid sitting for long periods of time, and do appropriate exercise to promote pelvic blood circulation.

3. Regular inspection

Women with a history of adnexitis should undergo regular gynecological examinations to detect and treat potential problems in a timely manner and prevent recurrence.

Although right-sided adnexitis is common, it may lead to serious consequences if not treated in time. By understanding the cause, actively treating and preventing it, you can effectively control the disease and protect your reproductive health. If you have suspected symptoms, it is recommended to see a doctor as soon as possible, make a clear diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan.
