Pelvic disc inflammation is a familiar gynecological inflammation that can also occur in our daily lives, among which tuberculous disc inflammation is one of them, and its manifestations must be noted.
What is Tuberculous Pelvic Inflammation
1. Tuberculous pelvic inflammatory disease is a chronic inflammation of the internal genitalia caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, also known as genital tuberculosis. The main symptoms are menstrual disorders, lower abdominal pain, and accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever, night sweats, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, and sometimes only menstrual fever.
2. Tuberculous pelvic inflammatory disease can lead to infertility, which is caused by the destruction and adhesion of the fallopian tube mucosa, often causing obstruction of the lumen; Or due to adhesion around the fallopian tubes, sometimes the lumen remains partially unobstructed. However, the mucosal cilia are damaged, the fallopian tubes become stiff, peristalsis is limited, their transport function is lost, and they cannot conceive. Therefore, the vast majority of patients are infertile.
3. The vast majority of tuberculous pelvic inflammatory disease are secondary infections. If any abnormalities are found in the body, it is necessary to immediately go to the hospital for examination and treatment to avoid delaying the condition and affecting the treatment effect.
Symptoms of tuberculous discitis
1. Lower abdominal pain: Due to local adhesions caused by tuberculous discitis, the patient's pain symptoms become more severe on a physiological day.
2. Tuberculosis: the symptoms of tuberculous pelvic inflammation can show the general symptoms of tuberculosis during activities, such as fever, night sweats, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, and fever during menstruation.
3. Irregular menstruation: Irregular menstruation is a common symptom of tuberculous discitis, mainly caused by endometrial congestion and ulcers. In the early stages of the disease, most patients have no special symptoms. Most patients get sick at the time of treatment, with significant damage to the endometrium. Clinical symptoms of irregular menstruation caused by tuberculous discitis include less menstruation or more amenorrhea.
4. Female infertility: Among patients with primary infertility, tuberculous cavity inflammation is the main cause. Tuberculous pelvic inflammatory traction of the fallopian tube, mucosal damage or adhesion, narrowing or blockage of the fallopian tube cavity, and serious consequences of infertility. The fallopian tube lumen is also partially smooth, with mucosal cilia destroyed, the fallopian tube stiff, peristalsis obstructed, and transportation function lost, which has a certain impact on natural pregnancy.
Clinical manifestations of tuberculous discitis
1. Tubal tuberculosis: Sometimes cheese samples are exposed in the lumen, with the umbrella end closed. The fallopian tubes filled with cheese samples in the lumen become thicker, the fallopian tubes with tuberculous nodules in the wall become stiff and thicker, and there are multiple tuberous protrusions in the isthmus.
