Expert ReplyCondition analysis:
PeIvic Inflammatory Disease can be physically uncomfortable, and women tend to experience increased volume of yellow/green discharge that smells off. However, there are also people who can be asymptomatic.
There is currently no specific test for PID, and a diagnosis is often made by taking account your medical history, physical exam and other tests. You may be suffering from PID if you have the following symptoms:
-- Abdominal pains or dull aches in the abdominal region, especially in the lower quadrant
-- Yellow/green discharge that may be accompanied by foul odor
-- Fever/chills
-- Painful urination
-- Having pain during sex
-- Bleeding between periods
Instructions:
Sitz Bath: A sitz bath can often relieve the pain of PID by alternating a cold or lukewarm water soak with a hot water soak in the tub. Use as little as one inch of lukewarm water in the tub. The temperature should be between 55 and 85 degrees F.
Soak in this cold bath for about thirty seconds, and then increase the water temperature to between 105 and 115 degrees F and soak in a hot bath for 3 minutes. Alternate between the two as often as you can.
