I don t see any cure .when lying no issues, But can t get up from the bed or walk due to pain. do u suggest me to see the gynec today or after 5 days completing the course of medicine by gp.
Based on the history, the prescribed antibiotics did not seem to work. So, you need to consult your gynecologist for possible surgical drainage under anesthesia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
