Prevention and care of pelvic inflammatory disease

If you have a disease, you can't just cure it and relax. If you don't do a good job of nursing, it is easy to cause recurrence of the disease. Pelvic inflammatory disease can be divided into acute and chronic. 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 a cure standard. Cooperate with life care to prevent recurrence.

Prevention and regulation of pelvic inflammatory disease:

1. Eliminate all routes of infection, keep the perineum clean and dry, wash the vulva with clean water every night, make a special basin, do not wash the vagina with your hands, and do not use hot water, soap, etc. to wash the vulva. During pelvic inflammatory disease, there is a lot of leucorrhea, which is sticky in texture. You should change your underwear frequently and do not wear tight synthetic underwear.

2. Vaginal bleeding after gynecological surgery, such as menstruation, after abortion, and after inserting or removing the IUD. Activities, swimming, bathing, and sauna bathing must be prohibited, and sanitary napkins must be changed frequently. When the body's resistance is reduced, 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 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, combine work and rest, and moderate sexual intercourse to avoid worsening symptoms.

4 Fever patients generally sweat a lot when their fever subsides. They should pay attention to keeping warm and dry, change clothes and pants when sweating, and avoid air conditioning or direct convection wind.

5. Pay attention to the quantity, quality, color and taste of leucorrhea. If the leucorrhea is large in quantity, thick in yellow, and has a strong odor, the condition will improve if the leucorrhea changes from yellow to white or light yellow, the quantity changes from large to small, and the taste tends to be normal and slightly sour.
