Symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease, defeated by traditional Chinese medicine

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a relatively common gynecological disease. Once you suffer from this disease, you will have symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, fever, and increased vaginal discharge. According to experts, the most effective Chinese medicine method is to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, clear away heat and detoxify.

1. Symptoms

The main clinical manifestations of pelvic inflammatory disease are lower abdominal pain (pain in the lower abdomen and lower abdomen, continuous pain, aggravated by activities, after sexual intercourse, before and after menstruation, and a feeling of heaviness and distension if the disease persists for a long time, pain in the lumbar region, accompanied by low back pain, aggravated by exertion), fever (high fever in acute cases and low fever in prolonged cases), increased vaginal discharge (red and white vaginal discharge), etc.

2. Etiology and pathogenesis

The causes of pelvic inflammatory disease are nothing more than two major factors: internal factors include emotional disorders, irregular diet, internal injuries due to fatigue, and excessive sexual intercourse; external factors include invasion of exogenous pathogens, surgical trauma, etc.

During menstruation or after childbirth, the uterus is not closed, allowing wind, cold, dampness, heat, or insect poison to invade the body; emotional disorders lead to liver dysfunction and Chong and Ren disorders; irregular diet damages the spleen and stomach, leading to endogenous dampness and heat; internal injuries due to fatigue and excessive sexual intercourse damage the Ren and Dai meridians. The damp-heat toxic evil combines with the Chong and Ren Qi and blood, accumulating in the uterus, causing Qi stagnation and blood stasis and leading to illness. If you repeatedly advance and retreat, your Qi and blood will be depleted, and your deficiency and excess will become mixed, making it difficult to heal. The main pathological factors are: dampness, heat, scars, cold, poison, and deficiency.
